Nikolas Schreck on Secrets of Abraxas
Aeon Byte Gnostic RadioJul 30, 2026
Occult researcher and filmmaker Nikolas Schreck joins host Miguel Conner to explore Abraxas, the enigmatic Gnostic deity he calls the true god of this realm and the key to awakening from the illusion of material existence. Schreck traces how the name of Abraxas spread through modern culture, from Carl Jung and Hermann Hesse's novel Demian to Carlos Santana, Charles Manson, David Bowie, and Philip K. Dick. He also argues that Abraxas and the Egyptian god Set may be the same being, and he frames current world events as the last gasp of the Demiurge.
