The organization of a set of elements into subsets according to relations of dominance and subordination. Each element of a subset is subordinate to the subset as a whole which itself is subordinate to the superset of which it is an element, and so on. In a strict hierarchy no element can be a member of more than one subset at a given level of the hierarchy. [1]

Spiritual Beings on the inner planes of our local solar system who guide the intelligent forces of nature and the evolutionary processes of our planet. The Hierarchy is further divided into twelve additional hierarchies which, within our planetary scheme, are reflected as chohans, adepts, and initiates. These in turn, work through their disciples, and by this means, the world as well.
