  SparkNotes: Demian: Chapter 3
Demian uses these two principles to explain how he moved his seat next to Sinclair's and how he is able to affect what the teacher does by staring at him.
But, Demian pushes on—the God of the Bible may represents all that is good and honorable, but, he insists, there is more to man. One must either also worship the devil or worship a god who embodies both good and evil.
Demian's suggestion that it is preferable to worship a god of both good and evil foreshadows Sinclair's later infatuation with Abraxas, a long forgotten creature of ancient times who is conceived of as such a god by those who worship him.

 Free Essay An Examination of Herman Hesse's Demian
Demian is a projection of the goals Sinclair wishes to achieve, attributes he would like to attain, and thoughts he cannot possess because of the bonds placed on his mind by society.
Demian again embodies these primal wishes, which are directed this time towards Kromer, in saying that Sinclair simply should “kill him (41).” Sinclair, who describes himself as a definite member of the good world, is unable to accept the desires, thoughts, and urges within himself, so he projects them upon the character of Demian.
He says “Often I felt a great longing for Max Demian, but no less often I hated him, accusing him of having caused the impoverishment of my life (71).” When Sinclair loses himself in drunken binges, Demian is almost no where to be found.
