We have learnt that man, as he lives in our world, is the lowest member of a hierarchical Order, that his place is at the lowest step of the ladder of this Order. Immediately above him in the supersensible world, at the first level, are the Beings called in Christian esotericism, *Angeloi*, Angels. They are the supersensible Beings of the rank immediately above man, who influence his life. Above them come the *Archangeloi* or Archangels, then the *Archai* or Spirits of Personality; then the *Exousiai*, *Dynameis* and *Kyriotetes*, and finally the *Thrones*, *Cherubim* and *Seraphim*.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"VI.
