So when your grandma and Jesus appear and emanate love and light towards you you just say screw this and fly towards the blackness instead. Escape the matrix bro.

Some people might mean that by the term āmatrixā. But others are using it to re-present Gnostic doctrines from long ago. So there are vastly different meanings but with some overlap.

ok ok understood understood
and what are the doctrines with their real names just so I know? or they donāt have names and they got the name matrix to be an idea?

Oh man. Iām not a Gnostic. (ie tough question for me) They have a doctrine of āemanationsā. So like God created another god that created another god that created some other gods that created us. And Sophia which is wisdom is one of those emanations. And Jesus is supposedly one of the more minor emanations.
And physical material reality is in and of itself evil. Itās not that it has been misused for evil but that it is actually evil. And good can only exist in the absence of material reality. So Jesus couldnāt come to earth but instead he had to possess some man. And the resurrection could not have been of a physical body but he came back in ghost form.

The main idea is that the world we live in is supposedly the byproduct of a demiurge. A flawed (possibly malevolent) creator being that does not have the perfection of God but still desires to create a reality that it can oversee.
Some have said that the entire physical world is a creation of a demiurgeā¦ but the sort of semantics that exist in Gnosticism is similar to what can be found in Platonism and forms of Hinduism. In practical terms, it has more to do with an overly restricted state of consciousness than the actual stuff of physical reality. (in this case, the demiurge would be a personās own limited consciousness or āegoā as a number of traditions from India like to say)

So the thing isā¦ Howdie, and a few people like him, are of a set of beliefs I like to think of as neo-Gnostic. Thatās unofficial. They share some core beliefs from the Gnostics but they are not actually Gnostics. Itās like they are bringing that belief system back into popularity but not wholesale. Not in itās original form completely.
They believe our world is less than real. And that to be our real selves we have to āescapeā it when we die and not return to earth.
