HIERARCHY OF SPIRITS AS A MAP OF CONSCIOUSNESS
This is a fundamental research essay analyzing the proposed hierarchy of spiritual levels (from 1st to 24th) in the context of religious studies, historiosophy, psychology, and cultural studies. We accept the initial premise — the reality of Irina Podzorova's contact with the spiritual world — and consider the received table as an integral revelation that has deep parallels with academic knowledge.
Essay: "Jacob's Ladder in the 21st Century: The Phenomenology of Spiritual Levels in Light of Science and Tradition"
Introduction: A Map of Reality Dictated from Above
The table received during the astral contact represents not just a list of entities, but a coherent ontology — a teaching about the structure of spiritual reality and its projection onto the human personality. From the perspective of a researcher who acknowledges the reality of the contact, what we have before us is not a figment of imagination, but a description of the noumenon (an intelligible entity) through phenomena accessible to the contactee's perception.
This system is unique in that it unites two streams: the descending (from the highest angelic orders to demonic states) and the ascending (the soul's path from darkness to light through incarnations). The key axiom of the text: "there is no bad or good level" — this statement resonates with the idea of the evolution of monads in Leibniz's philosophy and the concept of the "Great Chain of Being," where each level is necessary for the fullness of creation.
Part I. Religious and Theological Analysis
The Structure of the Heavenly Hierarchy
The proposed classification (levels 16–24) correlates remarkably with the works of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite ("On the Celestial Hierarchy"), where the angelic orders are divided into three triads. In Podzorova's work, we see a similar gradation:
The Highest Level (24, 23, 22): Devas, Arhats, Consultants. Analogous to "Thrones, Cherubim, and Seraphim" — those who directly contemplate Divine love and govern the universe (Devas), establish laws of justice (Arhats), and manage the "economy" of incarnations (Consultants).
The Middle Level (21, 20, 19): Guides, Healers, Prophets. These are classical angelic intermediaries, bringing light into the world. Their functions are communication between worlds (guides), healing (healers), and prophetic witness.
The Lowest Angelic Level (18, 17, 16): Guardians, Nature Spirits, Seekers. Here, there is close interaction with the material world. Guardian angels are figures present in practically all Abrahamic religions. Nature angels are direct analogs of elemental spirits recognized in pagan traditions and even in Christianity (as forces that animate creation).
Demonology as Soteriology
Levels 1–6 (Bhutas, Rakshasas, Asuras, Imps, Demons, Archons) represent a unique synthesis.
Hindu-Buddhist Context: The terms "Asuras" (titans eternally warring with the gods), "Rakshasas" (evil shape-shifting demons), and "Bhutas" (malevolent spirits of the dead) are directly borrowed from Hinduism. However, in this system, they are stripped of their cosmic immutability. They are not evil by essence, but are in a state of temporary fall, which brings this concept closer to the Christian understanding of fallen angels (Demons, Imps).
Gnostic Undertones: The term "Archons" (6th level) is taken from Gnosticism, where Archons are the evil rulers of the world, created by the Demiurge to hold souls in matter. In Podzorova's table, Archons are "demons by their very essence," lost spirits, which softens the Gnostic dualism.
The Key Idea: These levels are not a condemnation, but a place of "intensive care." Souls incarnated from these levels are described as people who have decided to overcome their egoism (Asuras), find light (Demons), or learn to trust anew (Imps). This echoes the Orthodox concept of theosis (deification) and the Catholic dogma of Christ's descent into hell — light penetrates even the deepest layers of darkness.
Part II. Psychological and Jungian Analysis
Archetypes of the Collective Unconscious
The proposed hierarchy is an excellent illustration of Carl Gustav Jung's theory of archetypes. Each level is an archetypal figure living within the psyche of a person coming from that level.
The Sage / Elder (22, 23): The levels of Consultants and Arhats. People carrying the function of order, conscience, and objective knowledge.
The Healer / Anima (20, 21): Angel-Healers and Guides. Here, the anima is strongly expressed — the feminine, receptive, emotional part of the psyche, connecting with the unconscious.
The Child / Divine Child (1, 9, 15): Bhutas (level 1) are called "children," Disciples (level 9) are young in soul, Inventors (level 15) are "eternal children." The Child archetype symbolizes potential, novelty, and the hope for rebirth, even from a state of deepest fall (level 1).
The Trickster (level 8 — Jinn): Jinn can change shape, are agile, just, but can also "punish." This is a pure Trickster archetype — a mediator, a disturber of the peace who, nevertheless, carries wisdom.
Transpersonal Psychology
The works of Stanislav Grof describe how, in altered states of consciousness (astral contact), people experience encounters with archetypal beings and receive information about the structure of reality. Podzorova's table can be viewed as a cartography of perinatal matrices and transpersonal levels.
Positive Disintegration: For people incarnated from low levels (1–5), the description contains warnings about difficulties, mistrust, and aggression. However, their task is to go through these states without being destroyed, which resembles Kazimierz Dąbrowski's theory of positive disintegration: psychological growth occurs through the breakdown of old structures and integration at a new level.
Part III. Historiosophical and Cultural Context
Philosophy of History
Each level not only describes a personality type but also defines a specific mission in history. People from the 15th level (Inventors) and 14th (Researchers) are the drivers of progress. People from the 11th level (Consumers-Hedonists) are the creators of the civilization of comfort. People from the 12th (Builders) and 10th (Warriors) are the pillars of the state.
In this sense, the table serves as a historiosophical key: the change of eras may be associated with the mass incarnation of spirits of a certain level. For example, the Renaissance — the mass arrival of Aesthetes (level 13) and Inventors (15). The modern consumer era — the time of Consumers (11) and pragmatic Demon-analysts (5).The Anthropic Principle in Cultural Studies
The table asserts that culture is created at the intersection of the material and spiritual worlds. Nature angels (level 17) teach people to care for the planet. Guide angels (21) "live on watch between worlds," remaining loyal to everything. This loyalty and flexibility (postmodernist tolerance) paradoxically coexists with a clear hierarchy (modernist structuralism).
The text proposes a new ethic based not on prohibitions, but on energetic ecology. Sin here is not a violation of dogma, but "energy waste," "unhealthy pride," or a "victim stance." This is a secularized, yet deeply spiritual language, understandable to modern people.The Phenomenon of "New Revelation"
From a cultural studies perspective, contacts of this kind (H.P. Blavatsky, R. Steiner, A. Bailey, D. Andreev with his "Rose of the World") arise at the turning points of eras. Podzorova's table is a miniature "Rose of the World." Like in Daniil Andreev's system, it contains:
Multiple worlds and layers of reality (Andreev's zatomis / Podzorova's levels).
Luminous hierarchies (Heavenly Russia / Angels and Devas).
The tragic fate of fallen worlds (Andreev's Witzraors / Archons and Demons).
The main idea — universal salvation and enlightenment, even for the most fallen entities.
Conclusion: A Synthesis of Heart Knowledge
An analysis of the table of spiritual levels dictated to Irina Podzorova shows that we are dealing not with a primitive text, but with a complex synthesis of religious, philosophical, and psychological concepts, adapted for the modern seeking individual.
What the researcher finds overall:
In Religious Studies: This is a neo-pagan-Christian synthesis with a strong influence of Hinduism, where the law of karmic growth and infinite Divine mercy prevails.
In Psychology: This is a detailed map of the archetypes of the collective unconscious and the path of individuation (finding oneself) through accepting one's level and its tasks.
In Historiosophy: This is an attempt to explain the mechanism of history through the succession of incarnating types of consciousness.
In Cultural Studies: This is the creation of a myth that responds to the demand of modernity — the need for hierarchy (lost in postmodernism) and simultaneously for unconditional acceptance (a postmodernist value).
The main conclusion this work leads to is that — regardless of whether one considers the source of information external (spiritual) or internal (deep intuition) — this table is a powerful tool for self-analysis and spiritual work. It affirms the basic truth expressed by the quote from Saint-Exupéry at the end: "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly." This is perhaps the only criterion uniting all 24 levels, from Bhuta to Deva.
THE HIERARCHY OF SPIRITS AS A MAP OF CONSCIOUSNESS
The Experience of Irina Podzorova in the Light of Religious Studies,
Historiosophy, Psychology, and Cultural Studies
A Foundational Research Essay by Claude.ai
Preface: The Hypothesis of Real Contact
The texts dictated by the Russian contactee Irina Podzorova, describing twenty-four levels of the spiritual hierarchy from Bhutas to Devas, represent a phenomenon deserving serious academic consideration. A researcher who accepts the working hypothesis of the authenticity of the contact immediately discovers that what lies before them is not an arbitrary fantasy, but a structure in which one can recognize complex intersections of world religious traditions, depth psychology, anthropology, and historiosophy.
The task of this essay is not to prove or disprove the metaphysical reality of the described levels, but to show: if we assume that such information could have been received from a source external to any single cultural context, then its content reveals a striking convergence with what thinkers, mystics, and scholars from different eras and civilizations have independently discovered. It is this convergence — the main argument for considering this as something more than a compilation.
The structure of the essay follows the logic of the system itself: from the foundations of the ontology of spiritual levels — to their psychological anatomy, then to historical and cultural parallels, and finally to a historiosophical synthesis.
Part I. The Ontology of Hierarchy: The Vertical of Being in World Traditions
1.1. The Twenty-Four Steps as a Universal Structure
The number twenty-four in Podzorova's text is not accidental. In the Buddhist tradition, there are twenty-four Pratyekabuddhas; in Jewish Kabbalah, twenty-four books of Scripture correspond to the twenty-four heavenly dignitaries from the Book of Revelation; in Hindu cosmology, there are twenty-four Tirthankaras — "ford-makers" across the ocean of existence. The number itself symbolizes the fullness of the temporal cycle (24 hours) and spatial orientation (24 directions in the Tibetan system of winds). If the contact is real, the informant might have intentionally chosen this number, knowing its archetypal weight in several independent traditions.
The fundamental logic of the described system — the decrease of love and increase of egoism as the level descends — fits perfectly into Plotinus's concept of emanation (3rd century AD). In the "Enneads," the One radiates the Nous (Mind), the Nous generates the World Soul, and the Soul generates matter, and as distance from the source increases, ontological density increases, and participation in the Good decreases. The comparison suggests itself: levels 24–19 (Devas, Arhats, Angels of various orders) correspond to the Plotinian Nous; levels 16–12 (Seekers, Inventors, Builders) correspond to the soul seeking return; levels 6–1 (Archons, Demons, Imps, Asuras, Rakshasas, Bhutas) correspond to what Plotinus called the "descent into matter."
"The soul descends not to be destroyed, but to sanctify that into which it descends" — Plotinus, "Enneads," IV, 8.
1.2. Parallels with Buddhist and Hindu Classifications of Beings
The very nomenclature of Podzorova's text is deeply Hinduistic: Devas, Arhats, Asuras, Rakshasas, Bhutas — all are categories elaborated in detail in the Puranas, the Vishnu Purana, the Bhagavata Purana, and the Buddhist Abhidharmakosha. However, it is significant that in the contactee's text, these categories are reinterpreted: Rakshasas and Asuras are not simply "demons," innately hostile to humans, but souls in the process of evolution, capable of conversion. This is closer to the Buddhist Dharma, where even beings in hell have the possibility of liberation through the accumulation of merit, than to the orthodox Hindu concept where Asuras are eternal opponents of the gods.
Notable is the correspondence with the Buddhist concept of the six realms (Shad-gati): the realm of gods (Devas, levels 24–21), the realm of demi-gods (Asuras, levels 8–6), the human realm (levels 16–9), the realm of hungry ghosts (Pretas, levels 5–3), the animal realm, and the hell realm (levels 2–1). Vajrayana Buddhism adds to this a detailed hierarchy of Dharmapalas — protectors of the Dharma — which corresponds almost literally to Podzorova's levels of Guardian Angels (18) and Warriors (10).
The following fact is critically important: in traditional Hinduism, Jinas (level 8 according to Podzorova) are not subtle-material beings, but conquerors — "jina" means "conqueror," it is an epithet of Mahavira and the Buddha. In Podzorova's system, however, Jinn are closer to Islamic jinn — spirits of fire and air. This mixing of two semantically different traditions (Jain and Islamic) while preserving a single function (protection of territories, connection with natural elements) points either to the synthetic consciousness of the medium, or — assuming the contact hypothesis — to the informant communicating a reality that underlies both symbolic languages.
1.3. Elementals, Jinn, and Archons: Middle Eastern and Classical Strata
The mention of Elementals (level 7) traces back to Paracelsus (1493–1541), which the text explicitly acknowledges. But the concept of the four spirits of the elements is much older: it is present in the Chaldean Oracles, in Proclus's treatises on immaterial forces, and in the Hermetic tradition of the Corpus Hermeticum. It is particularly interesting that Paracelsus created his system by synthesizing Neoplatonism, alchemy, and folk magic — that is, we have here a historically documented precedent of synthetic knowledge claiming to have been openly received from higher sources.
Archons (level 6) are a key concept of Gnosticism. In the systems of Valentinus and Basilides, the Archons are the creator-demiurges of the lower world, holding souls captive in matter. Comparison with Podzorova's text reveals a fundamental reinterpretation: here, Archons are not jailers, but lost spirits destined to find light. This corresponds not to classical Gnosticism, but to the later tradition of apocatastasis — the teaching of universal salvation developed by Origen (2nd–3rd centuries AD) and Gregory of Nyssa (4th century AD): all beings without exception, including demons, ultimately return to God.
"In the end, God will be all in all, and evil itself will be turned into good, for the nature of Good is invincible" — Gregory of Nyssa, "On the Soul and the Resurrection."
Part II. The Psychological Anatomy of Levels: From Freud to Maslow and Jung
2.1. Levels as Stages of Psychic Development
Psychological analysis of Podzorova's descriptions allows us to establish striking parallels with Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs (1943) and his concept of self-actualization. Let's examine the correspondences.
Levels 1–4 (Bhutas, Rakshasas, Asuras, Imps) describe beings completely absorbed by the basic needs of survival, protection, and control; their mentality is a deficiency mentality, according to Maslow. Mistrust, aggression, egoism are not moral vices, but psychological strategies of beings convinced of the world's absolute danger. Maslow would call this "deficiency motivation" (D-motivation).
Levels 5–9 (Demons, Archons, Elementals, Jinn, Disciples) correspond to what Maslow described as intermediate levels: the needs for belonging, recognition, and cognitive exploration of the world. The Disciple (level 9) is a manifestation of the cognitive need in its pure form. It is fundamental that Podzorova's text describes precisely this level as "open to experience" — a term central to Carl Rogers's humanistic psychology.
Levels 10–17 (from Warrior to Nature Angel) are levels of self-actualization according to Maslow: a person no longer simply reacts to the world but actively transforms it according to their values. The description of the Warrior (10) remarkably accurately reproduces the Jungian archetype of the Hero — one who fights not to destroy an opponent, but to restore order.
Levels 18–24 (from Guardian Angels to Devas) correspond to what the later Maslow called "transpersonal needs" — extending beyond the individual ego. These are levels of "being motivation" (B-motivation): service, love, contemplation.
2.2. Archetypal Content: The Jungian System
Carl Gustav Jung in "Psychology and Alchemy" (1944) and "The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious" (1934) described psychic structures identical to what Podzorova calls levels of spirits. Jungian "individuation" — the process of integrating all layers of the psyche — structurally coincides with the description of the path from lower to higher levels.
The Shadow archetype — unintegrated, repressed aspects of the personality — corresponds to levels 1–6. Jung emphasized that encountering the Shadow does not imply its destruction, but recognition and integration. Podzorova's text is perfectly synchronous: "A bright person is not one who does not know darkness, but one who knows both light and darkness and makes the right choice" — a quote included in the description of the Archon level.
The Anima/Animus archetype (the guide between the conscious and unconscious) is embodied by the Guide Angels (21) — beings "living on guard between two worlds." Jung described the Anima as a "living link between consciousness and the unconscious" — this is almost a literal definition of the function of the 21st level.
The Self archetype (the center of the entire psyche, uniting the conscious and unconscious) corresponds to the level of Devas (24) — those who have "maximally opened their heart chakra" and achieved a state of unconditional love. The Jungian Self is not the ego, but something infinitely larger; in parallel, Devas are described as those who have transcended the personal "I."
"Meeting oneself is one of the most unpleasant things one can avoid as long as one projects everything negative onto others" — C.G. Jung, "Collected Works," vol. 11.
2.3. Transactional Analysis and Levels of Ego States
Eric Berne (1950s–1960s) described three ego states — Child, Adult, Parent — and their pathological deformations. Podzorova's system allows for an interesting comparison: levels 1–3 demonstrate being stuck in the "Adapted Child" — a pattern of victimhood, fear, and manipulation; levels 4–10 — in the "Critical Parent" with its striving for control and justice at any cost; levels 11–16 — in the mature "Adult," capable of autonomous analysis; levels 17–24 — in what Berne called the "Natural Child" in the highest sense — a state of spontaneous love and openness, preceding any socialization.
Particularly valuable is the description of level 11 (Consumers): the text emphasizes that a consumer is not an egoist, but a person who has mastered the skill of accepting pleasure without guilt. This precisely corresponds to what Berne and his followers called "permission": permission to be, feel, desire — permission whose absence blocks development. Interestingly, this level is placed in the middle of the hierarchy: it is the psychological base without which movement to the higher levels of service is impossible.
2.4. Levels and Assagioli's Concept of Psychosynthesis
Roberto Assagioli (1888–1974), the founder of psychosynthesis, proposed a model of the psyche as concentric spheres: the lower unconscious (instincts, traumas), the middle unconscious (everyday emotions), the higher unconscious or Superconscious (intuition, inspiration, spiritual experiences) — and at the center — the "I," capable of identifying with any of these levels.
The structural correspondence with Podzorova's system is obvious: levels 1–6 — lower unconscious, levels 7–16 — middle unconscious, levels 17–24 — Superconscious. But Assagioli's concept of "subpersonalities" — partial "selves," each of which can be anchored at a certain level — is particularly significant. Then Podzorova's system is read not only as a hierarchy of different souls but also as a map of the inner space of a single soul, capable of embodying different levels of consciousness in different periods of life.
Part III. The Historiosophical Dimension: The Evolution of Spirit in History
3.1. Hegel and the Dialectic of Spirit
Hegel's "Phenomenology of Spirit" (1807) describes the ascent of the Absolute Spirit through stages of self-alienation and return to itself. The structure of this movement — thesis (unity), antithesis (rupture, alienation), synthesis (return at a higher level) — is implicitly but persistently present in Podzorova's system.
Levels 24–17 (Devas and Angels) represent the thesis: spirit in unity with the Absolute. Levels 16–7 (Seekers, Inventors, Researchers, Elementals) represent the antithesis: spirit in search, movement, exploration — that is, in self-alienation, a departure from the original unity for the sake of knowledge. Levels 6–1 (Archons to Bhutas) represent the extreme point of alienation, the "other-being of spirit" according to Hegel. But this point is not final: the text insists that even Bhutas carry the potential for return. This is directly Hegelian: "spirit returns to itself through its other."
Historiosophically, this means that history is nothing other than the collective journey of spirit through all 24 levels. Civilizations, peoples, epochs embody the predominant level of their spiritual state. The flourishing of Greek philosophy — level 14 (Researchers); medieval theocracy — level 19 (Prophet Angels); the Enlightenment — level 16 (Seekers); the Industrial Revolution — level 12 (Builders); the 20th-century consumer society — level 11 (Consumers). If we accept this model, the question arises: towards which level is humanity moving now?
3.2. Solovyov, Florensky, and Russian Religious Philosophy
It is significant that the text was created in a Russian cultural environment. Russian religious philosophy of the late 19th and early 20th centuries anticipated much of what Podzorova describes. Vladimir Solovyov in his "Lectures on Godmanhood" (1878–1881) argued that history is a process of "divine-human" perfection: humanity as a whole moves towards the embodiment of the Absolute. Each person occupies a specific place in this movement — which is structurally identical to the system of spiritual levels.
Pavel Florensky in "The Pillar and Ground of the Truth" (1914) developed the concept of the Church as a "living organism," where each member occupies their place in the hierarchy of love. Florensky, like Podzorova, insisted: hierarchy is not domination, but an organic distribution of functions, where the higher serve the lower, not dominate them. Compare the description of Devas (24): "they came to teach others to love, to help unobtrusively, setting the rhythm with their example of being."
Nikolai Fyodorov in "The Philosophy of the Common Task" (1906) put forward a radical idea: the ultimate goal of history is the resurrection of all the dead — that is, the return of all souls from the state of "death" (lower levels) to the fullness of being. This metaphysically coincides with the idea of apocatastasis present in Podzorova's system: no soul is damned forever, each moves towards the light.
"Man is something that must be overcome" — this Nietzschean formula was reinterpreted by Russian religious philosophers: man is that which is in the process of deification" — V.S. Solovyov, "Lectures on Godmanhood."
3.3. Teilhard de Chardin and Noospheric Ascent
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881–1955), a Jesuit theologian and paleontologist, proposed the concept of the "Omega Point" — the final state of cosmic evolution, in which all consciousness unites with God. In his "The Phenomenon of Man" (1955), biological evolution transitions into noospheric evolution, and that into the "Christosphere." This is a direct analog of Podzorova's system: from lower subtle-material beings (Bhutas, Rakshasas) through human levels (Warriors, Disciples) to angelic ones (Devas).
Particularly important is Teilhard's idea of "tangential" and "radial" energy. Tangential energy connects beings horizontally, at the same level (social bonds, interaction); radial energy draws each being towards a higher level of complexity and consciousness. In Podzorova's terms: each level has its horizontal tasks (professions, relationships, pathologies) and a vertical vector (a call to move higher, to open a new level of love within oneself).
3.4. Aurobindo and Integral Yoga
Sri Aurobindo (1872–1950) created the system of "integral yoga," in which evolution is described as the "descent" of the Supramental (higher consciousness) into matter and the "ascent" of matter to the Supramental. In "The Life Divine" (1939–1940), he describes in detail various levels of beings: Asuras, Rakshasas, Pishachas, Devas — and their role in the evolution of earthly consciousness.
Astoundingly, Aurobindo, describing Asuras (level 3 in Podzorova's system), gives an almost identical characteristic: beings of colossal mind and will, seized by pride, capable of the greatest achievements, but in a destructive way — until a "conversion," a transformation of their power into service, occurs. Podzorova: "Asuras can achieve great things, may these deeds bring benefit and light." Aurobindo called this the "Asuric nature on the path to transformation."
If we consider Podzorova's contact real, then the coincidence with Aurobindo's system — a thinker who himself claimed to have received his revelations from transpersonal sources (he described the voice of Vivekananda guiding him in prison) — is not a random coincidence, but a confirmation that different contactees are tapping into the same source of knowledge.
Part IV. Cultural Analysis: Mythological Archetypes
4.1. Shamanism and the Cartography of Other Worlds
The shamanic systems of all cultures — Siberian, Amazonian, African, Australian — invariably contain descriptions of hierarchical worlds inhabited by beings of different ontological statuses. The shaman is precisely what Podzorova calls a Guide Angel (21): they move between worlds, accompany the souls of the dead, and receive knowledge from nature spirits.
Mircea Eliade in "Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy" (1951) documented a stable structure: the lower world (spirits of earth and death), the middle world (spirits of nature and deceased ancestors), and the upper world (gods and celestial beings). This tripartite scheme is present in Podzorova's system in an expanded form: lower levels 1–6 — the "lower world"; middle levels 7–17 — the "middle world" of nature spirits and human types; upper levels 18–24 — the "upper world" of angelic orders.
Eliade emphasized that in all shamanic cultures, beings of the lower world are not considered absolutely evil: they are dangerous, but with proper handling, they can help. This accurately reproduces Podzorova's logic regarding the lower levels: "You are great, despite your difficult experience, you still found that light" (about level 6).
4.2. Kabbalistic Hierarchy and the Tree of Sefirot
The Kabbalistic Tree of Sefirot contains ten Sefirot and twenty-two paths between them — a total of thirty-two elements. However, in the Lurianic Kabbalah system, a description of "Kelipot" (literally "shells," "husks") is added — demonic counterparts parallel to the luminous Sefirot. The Kelipot form a "Tree of Death" with its own hierarchy of dark forces.
In Podzorova's system, levels 1–6 functionally correspond to the Kelipot: this is not absolute evil, but an absence or depletion of spiritual light — precisely how Luria defined the nature of the Kelipot. At the same time, the Kabbalistic doctrine of "nitzotzot" ("sparks") asserts: within every Kelipah is enclosed a spark of Divine light, for the liberation of which the Messiah comes into the world. In Podzorova: "you still found that not-lost part of light in your heart" (level 5).
Podzorova's number twenty-four can be correlated with the twenty-two paths of the Tree plus two additional levels corresponding to "Ain Soph" (infinity, the 23rd and 24th levels beyond all categorization) — which gives the system a truly Kabbalistic dimension.
4.3. Neoplatonism and Christian Angelology
Dionysius the Areopagite (5th–6th centuries AD) in "The Celestial Hierarchy" described nine orders of angels, divided into three triads: the highest (Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones), the middle (Dominions, Powers, Authorities), and the lowest (Principalities, Archangels, Angels). Thomas Aquinas developed this system in the "Summa Theologica," adding a detailed psychology for each order.
Comparison with Podzorova's system yields the following: Devas (24) — Seraphim, "burning" with love for God; Arhats (23) — Cherubim, bearers of wisdom and justice; Guide Angels (21) and Healer Angels (20) — correspond to the middle orders performing specific functions; Guardian Angels (18) — the lowest angelic order, closest to humans. This correspondence is so detailed that it precludes chance.
Fundamentally new in Podzorova's system is the inclusion of "nature spirits" (Elementals, Jinn, Archons) in the same hierarchy as angels. In classical Christian angelology, nature spirits are a separate category, often viewed with suspicion. The synthesis of two traditions — angelological and demonological — into a single evolutionary system is a theologically original contribution.
4.4. Zoroastrianism and Dualism as Dynamics
The Zoroastrian system (7th–6th centuries BC) is built on the opposition between Ahura Mazda (Lord of Wisdom) and Angra Mainyu (Destructive Spirit), which correspond to the hierarchies of the Amesha Spenta (Holy Immortals, analogous to angels) and the Daevas (in Zoroastrianism — evil spirits, which is interestingly inverted compared to Hinduism, where Devas are gods). In Podzorova, this dualism is resolved: there is no eternal opposition, but an evolutionary continuum. This is closer to later Zoroastrianism (Zurvanism), where Zurvan — Infinite Time — generates both principles as stages of a single process.
Part V. The Phenomenology of Contact: Medium, Informant, and Cultural Context
5.1. The Problem of the Language of Contact
One of the main arguments of skeptics is that Podzorova's descriptions are "too culturally specific" — they use Hindu nomenclature, Orthodox imagery, and a Russian context. Accepting the hypothesis of real contact, we must explain this specificity. The answer may be as follows: any informant from other planes of existence is forced to use the conceptual apparatus and figurative language of the medium. This is a fundamental limitation of any transphysical contact.
This is precisely what Carl Jung wrote when analyzing "The Seven Sermons to the Dead" (1916) — a text he himself received in an altered state of consciousness: "Such messages inevitably use images accessible to the perceiver. The form always belongs to the medium; the content may belong to the other." If we apply this principle to Podzorova, it becomes clear why Islamic jinn, Buddhist arhats, Orthodox guardian angels, and Neoplatonic elementals coexist in one text: this is not an eclectic compilation, but the inevitable result of transphysical communication through a specific human mind.
5.2. Parallel Cases: Swedenborg, Steiner, Blavatsky
History has precedents of large-scale contact systems that were later recognized as significant by thinkers. Emanuel Swedenborg (1688–1772) — a scientist, physicist, and academician who conducted detailed investigations of heavens and hells in a state of clairvoyance — created a system that Kant criticized, but Goethe studied with interest. Swedenborg's system shares the same features as Podzorova's: internal logical coherence, convergence with other traditions, and a functional orientation (spirits do not simply "exist" but perform specific tasks in the cosmic economy).
Rudolf Steiner (1861–1925), founder of anthroposophy, created a highly detailed system of hierarchies of spiritual beings — Angels, Archangels, Archai, Exusiai, etc. — based on his own clairvoyant experience. Significantly, Steiner, like Podzorova, connected spiritual levels with specific human types and professional vocations: he asserted that great artists are inspired by angels, scientists by archai, and religious leaders by archangels. This is structurally identical to the system of levels in Podzorova's work.
Helena Blavatsky (1831–1891) in "The Secret Doctrine" (1888) described seven "root races" and their corresponding spiritual hierarchies, relying on contact with the "Mahatmas." Despite significant cultural differences, the basic structure coincides: an evolutionary continuum from "dark matter" to "pure spirit," where each level is necessary and none is damned forever.
5.3. Neuroscience and Altered States of Consciousness
Modern neuroscience offers an interesting perspective. Research by Rick Strassman on DMT (dimethyltryptamine, an endogenous psychedelic produced by the brain) shows that in certain states of consciousness, subjects consistently report encounters with "beings" organized in hierarchies, endowed with various functions, and transmitting knowledge. Strassman in "DMT: The Spirit Molecule" (2000) notes: descriptions of these beings converge among people from different cultures — which in itself is a scientific fact requiring explanation.
If we accept that contactees are accessing the same layer of reality as Strassman's subjects or shamans in ecstatic states, then Podzorova's system gains a neurophenomenological foundation: it describes structures that are stably reproduced in altered states of consciousness — which itself testifies to their existence independent of cultural context.
Part VI. Anthropological Conclusions and Historiosophical Synthesis
6.1. Man as a Microcosm of the Hierarchy
One of the profound ideas in Podzorova's system is that the spiritual level of incarnation is not a sentence, but a starting point. A person born at the level of Bhutas carries within them the potential of all twenty-four levels: after all, their very birth means that some part of consciousness has already found a path to the light. This aligns with the fundamental maxim of Hermes Trismegistus: "As above, so below" — man is a microcosm, containing all levels of being within himself.
This is fundamentally important for psychotherapy and pedagogy. Knowledge of one's "level" should not become a label, but a map: an understanding of what resources and vulnerabilities a person brings into this world. Podzorova's descriptions, despite their metaphysical framework, contain accurate psychological portraits: the Seeker (16) is not just a "type of spirit," but a configuration of personality, with its striving for freedom, erudition, fear of losing freedom, and tendency to avoid decisions. This is a clinically described type encountered in the practice of any psychotherapist.
6.2. The Ethics of the System: Absence of Judgment as the Main Message
Podzorova's system opens with the declaration: "There is no bad or good level." This statement has profound ethical consequences. Within most religious systems, the division into the "saved" and the "damned," the "pure" and the "impure," is fundamental. Podzorova's system dissolves this: each level is necessary, each carries its function in the cosmic whole.
This radically coincides with the ethic of "unconditional positive regard" in humanistic psychology (Rogers), with "compassion without preference" in the Buddhist practice of Tonglen, with Nietzsche's "amor fati" — love of fate, acceptance of everything as necessary. If Podzorova's system was received from an external source, it is a source with a very mature ethical position — a position that the best minds of humanity have arrived at independently and with difficulty.
6.3. The Place of Russia in Spiritual History: The Context of the Contact
It is noteworthy that this text was created in Russia and within a Russian cultural context. Russian culture occupies a special place in historiosophy: it is a culture where apocalypticism and utopianism, self-sacrifice and God-seeking, humility and rebellion are structure-forming poles. Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Solovyov, Berdyaev — all, in one way or another, developed themes identical to those contained in Podzorova's system: the hierarchy of spirit, free will, salvation through suffering, the impossibility of condemnation.
A contact established through a Russian medium inevitably takes on these cultural forms. But the content — convergence with world traditions — indicates that something universal is being transmitted through a local channel. This aligns with the self-perception of Russian culture as "pan-human" (Dostoevsky's term): Russia is destined to synthesize the experience of all humanity.
6.4. Historiosophical Conclusion: The System as a Symptom of the Epoch's Spiritual Maturity
Such synthetic systems arise in history during critical epochs. Neoplatonism arose at the intersection of the pagan world and Christianity (3rd–6th centuries AD); Kabbalah flourished during a period of religious persecution and intellectual ferment (12th–16th centuries); Theosophy appeared at a time of crisis in traditional religion and the rise of positivism (19th century); Anthroposophy emerged on the eve of the world wars. Podzorova's system arises in post-Soviet Russia, simultaneously experiencing the collapse of atheistic ideology, the encounter with globalization, and the search for new foundations of identity.
Historiosophically, this means: such syntheses respond to a real spiritual need of the era. They arise when none of the existing traditions alone is capable of providing an answer to the questions of the time. The system of twenty-four levels offers: a universal language of spiritual description, free from confessional boundaries; an evolutionary ethic that excludes condemnation; psychologically accurate descriptions of human types; and — which is especially important — an active practical orientation: each level contains not only a description but also a task.
Conclusion: Arguments for the Authenticity of the Contact
The conducted analysis allows us to formulate the following arguments in favor of the view that what we have before us is not a compilation or fantasy, but a genuine experience of contact with a source of knowledge lying beyond any single cultural context.
First Argument: Convergence with Independent Traditions. Podzorova's system reproduces structures independently discovered in Neoplatonism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Kabbalah, Christian angelology, shamanism, and modern depth psychology. Simple compilation does not explain the quality of this convergence: not just terminological similarity, but functional and structural similarity.
Second Argument: Psychological Accuracy. The descriptions of human types at each level are clinically credible. They contain not just characteristics, but descriptions of pathological deformations (the level "in negative manifestation") and specific recommendations for correction. This is a level of knowledge characteristic of an experienced psychologist or anthropologist — but not of intuitive fantasizing.
Third Argument: Ethical Originality. The rejection of condemnation, the acceptance of all levels as necessary, the emphasis on evolutionary movement rather than on "salvation" or "damnation" — this is not the most common position in popular esotericism. On the contrary, most mass spiritual systems rely precisely on the division between "us" and "them." The ethical maturity of Podzorova's system points to a source with a high level of development.
Fourth Argument: Internal Coherence. A system of twenty-four levels, each with its ontological status, psychological portrait, historical parallel, professional predispositions, pathological deformations, and practical recommendations — this is a complex, multidimensional construction with a high degree of internal coherence. The "accidental" creation of such a system is extremely unlikely.
While allowing for the authenticity of the contact, we are not obliged to take the system's metaphysical assertions literally. We may understand the "levels of spirits" as structures of the collective unconscious, as real ontological beings, as evolutionary stages of consciousness, as psychological archetypes — or as all of these simultaneously. But that this system describes something real about human nature and its spiritual development — this is an argument that withstands serious academic analysis.
"We are in need of myths that will help us to identify not only with our own society, but with the planet as a whole" — Joseph Campbell, "Myths to Live By," 1972.
Podzorova's system is not an answer to all questions,
but an accurate map of the questions worth asking.

Cassiopeia - Description of the Levels of Spirits. Alternative Version
When you calculate the spiritual level of an incarnation, you must understand that there is no bad or good level. There is energy, and it was necessary for you to gain experience in a past life. You have incarnated, which means you are needed here and now, at this level, on this planet. It is God's will. You are beautiful, rely on your heart, it will tell you the step for spiritual and physical growth.
24th Level: Devas
These are Spirits who achieved the maximum potential of love in a past incarnation or chose the path of serving to help others. They have known the power of their heart and have maximally opened their heart chakra. In this incarnation, they may face misunderstanding from those around them, as they subtly feel the world's experiences and empathize with everyone. In their mind, love is above all else, but the realities of the world will reflect something else.
Their task is not to succumb to cruelty and become embittered, not to fall into a victim mentality, and not to descend into negative experiences. You came into the world to teach others to love, through your own example of life, to help unobtrusively, setting the rhythm by your very being. Do not fall into a state of fanaticism; be that light in the darkness that people seek to find, not one that burns. Meditations, prayers, contemplation of nature, family – these are what will help you avoid falling into depression.
"In dark times, the light people are clearly seen..." – from the novel "Arch of Triumph" by Erich Maria Remarque
23rd Level: Arhats
These are Spirits of justice and honor, the voice of conscience, so to speak, embodied in form. Their law is the law of a pure heart, a clear mind, and devotion to serving God. When such spirits incarnate, they often become protectors, choosing professions or activities where they can fully help – prove and defend the innocent. Of course, in modern conditions, they often choose the path of mentoring, where through love and honor they guide lost souls, for example, in psychology. In the family, such children often display strong and determined qualities, courageously defending their loved ones.
Such people must remember that justice should not come with cruelty. A heart that loves you will hear you if it is on the same wavelength as you, and among us, there are many adults whose hearts have been clouded by time. Your task is to gently wipe this soot from their hearts, not to crush or suppress them.
"To be just, you must first be kind. And to be kind means to understand that all people make mistakes." – Adriano Celentano
22nd Level: Spirit-Consultants
Such Spirits are engaged in seeking the best conditions for the new incarnation of spirits whose time has come to incarnate and gain new experience. People coming from the 22nd level subtly sense any changes and fluctuations in the external environment, have a good understanding of numerology, astrology, and often choose professions where they can directly provide proper support, help with advice and action. Such people often feel things in advance and strongly experience the internal duality of their nature, for example – whether to speak or remain silent.
The task of those coming from the 22nd level is to choose a position of neutrality and learn to give help when it is sought, not to pressure, not to waste their energy on everything indiscriminately. And if a piece of advice is necessary, it should be given gently and carefully. Your words have mighty power; your throat chakra works directly with the energies of the universe; be careful with what you put into words. In a negative position, you can waste your strength helping others without receiving reciprocal energy in exchange. Do not try to support everyone indiscriminately; when the student is ready, the teacher appears – this is the ideal way for you to work with energies.
"People who do not listen to advice cannot be helped..." – Benjamin Franklin.
21st Level: Angel-Guides
Their task is to live guarding two worlds, meeting and escorting souls into the material world and back into the world of spirits. They live on watch between our worlds, so they are loyal to everything, escorting souls even where there is nothing, shining the lantern of their heart. They live in both the material world and the subtle material world, live by the heart, know a lot, and have flexible thinking. In their world, logic and reason fail; faith and love always win.
People incarnated from the 21st level feel their whole lives primarily with their hearts, then with all other senses. They bring a sense of calm and warmth; they are an island in the hustle and bustle of this world; they can easily lead us into spirituality and back to a state of clear mind. They will keep all your secrets and teach you to live in the duality of the world. They are embodied in a physical body, but the spirit still remembers that they are the gates and guardians of two worlds. Love and support from loved ones give such people life force. Through guides, a person finds heart, love, and devotion, finds faith that gives strength to spiritual development. The task of the 21st level is to learn to love, to be devoted to oneself, to others, and to the path you have chosen. Reveal divine absolute love within yourself. Learn to trust the world. Free yourself from egoism.
It's easy for those around to say, "Don't take it to heart." How do they know the depth of your heart? And what is "close" for it? - Elchin Safarli
20th Level: Angel-Healers
Such angels are engaged in healing both spiritual wounds and physical ones. They are pedantic, kind, always ready to help, listen, and heal. They are demanding of safety; they teach that all tasks must be completed, empty talk drains the energy of health, deceit and lies are the main wormholes that consume physical health. Creation and love are the main tools of health. Healing is the goal of their lives, and they treat their work with reverence, asking in return to take care of one's health; self-love allows us to love others.
People coming from the 20th level do not tolerate pressure, are also pedantic in their affairs, and have golden hands. Often their gift is passed on from their angelic essence, so it is not uncommon for them to be doctors or people working with children, or professions requiring patience and the magic of understanding at a glance. These people often possess the gift of healing even in the physical body, can be guides into the depths of our mental, unconscious, or be spiritual healers; they possess a unique gift of sending positive vibrations through thoughts and energy.
Children and animals are drawn to people of the 20th level; people seek support in you, often running to you for advice, but do not forget that you must be able to replenish your energy and, of course, take care of yourself first and foremost. Your energy to charge others is needed by this world, but you are most important; heal yourself, then proceed to help others. Find what fills you with energy, and do not allow others to take advantage of your kindness and softness of heart. In a negative manifestation, you will become a loner, without strength, with an anxiety disorder; do not allow such a development of events, fill yourself first, then others.
"To be happy with the happiness of others is true happiness and the earthly ideal of life for everyone who devotes themselves to medical science." - N. I. Pirogov
19th Level: Angel-Prophets
The task of such angels is to bring the light of God's love to all living in any dimension and time. They are by no means mystics; their task is to tell us the true utterance of God. They treat their mission with reverence, giving all their energy to conveying true love. People born from the 19th level are very different from others from early childhood. They treat all living things with care, pity everyone, and do not live by duality. These are people with big hearts. Their love amply warms everyone around them who comes into their circle. Many take advantage of their gentleness, but they often forgive and do not pay attention to it.
These are believers; their heart and soul from birth are devoted to serving God and love. You often know things in advance, you are often silent, withdraw, and retreat into your own world. It is hard for you to live in the harshness of this world, and you certainly have your own struggles, but still, your task is to accept this given imperfection of human existence and convey love and light to those living now. Of course, not to become a fanatic, but to become that ray of kindness, that beacon of love in our difficult times. Choosing an activity is not easy for you, but listen to your inner self, ask what gives you the energy to move forward, not to live in a stupor. Your big, loving heart will guide you on the right path.
"Do not complain about the darkness. Become a small source of light yourself." - Bernard Werber
18th Level: Guardian Angels
Their main task is to protect incarnated souls. They appear nearby to snatch the incarnated one from the power of evil spirits and shield them from evil. They help cope with blasphemous thoughts, obsessive thoughts, protect from temptation, guide on the right path, and assist in affairs. In our soul, there is a constant struggle between light and darkness; we ourselves become the battlefield, so the Lord gave us a Guardian Angel as an ally. A Guardian Angel invisibly accompanies a person throughout their life. Do not forget to thank your angels, maintain purity of heart, and do not be tempted by blasphemous thoughts.
People coming from the 18th level are silent, kind, and patient. They love nature; animals and children are drawn to them. They always keep their word and back it up with action. They will sympathize with you sincerely, with all their hearts, and their hearts are big. Externally, they are often cold, seem strict, and not very sensitive, but this is only their protection, just a shell hiding completely opposite qualities. They are hardworking, often choose manual work, things go well for them; people with golden hands. A nut with a golden core. If you have such a person in your family, you are very lucky; you have found an unshakeable pillar and support. Do not forget to give them your love, and they will multiply it for you.
"Angels represent God's personal care for each of us." - Andrew Greeley
17th Level: Angels of Nature
Their main task is to help share knowledge and receive teachings from subtle-material beings. In different cultures, plasmoids are called differently, but the essence of such beings is to help the planet they inhabit. They monitor the healthy growth of plants, harmonize the energies of nature, and oversee the life of the animal world. They have no concept of bad or good; subtle-material beings live by other concepts, and we have much to learn. But they are difficult to contact, and with the few they share their knowledge with are the Angels of Nature. They, in turn, teach them to maintain and not disrupt the balance, tell them the essence of the existence of the incarnated, thus maintaining harmony.
The Angels of Nature also monitor the ecology of the landscape and the inhabitants of the animal and aquatic worlds. The Angels of Nature subtly sense those who are ready to help serve for the benefit of nature and will certainly credit your merits as good deeds. They are very tolerant, do not try to influence the decisions of living beings, except when there is some interaction with nature spirits. Those coming from the 17th level are betrayed by their eyes; they scan you like a scanner, are very perceptive, often work with people; it is not uncommon for them to be teachers, psychiatrists, doctors. In general, their special quality is not to judge, but to gently guide; one can only envy that. They will figure you out in a few minutes of conversation and will speak a language you understand, adapt to changing conditions and behavior, but remain themselves. People of iron will with a soft heart of an energy conductor. Such people sense changes in energy and often suffer from vascular diseases.
Those incarnated from the 17th level must remember that judgment will lead to energy disruption, and hence, over time, to illness. You are strong, but pride must not rule you. You are conductors of energy, came to help your planet, family, and friends. Communication with nature, travel, learning languages, working with animals, as well as helping people – this is what gives you strength and fills you with energy. Do not lose it by stagnating; develop, start small; with small steps you will reach an understanding of where to go next. Love and faith always fill you; give it to yourself, read prayers, meditate, combine your activity with rest, do not overload yourself; you can work to exhaustion, everyone knows this; surround not only your loved ones but also yourself with care.
"You get up in the morning, wash, put yourself in order – and immediately put your planet in order." - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, "The Little Prince".
16th Level: Spirits – Seekers
Their mission is to find the light of love even in the darkest times; they are Dankos in the world of spirits. They try with all their might to find the way to the world of Angels, where the energy of love surpasses dark energies. They have come a long way in searching for truth and are finally beginning to realize that the door is themselves and that faith, hope, and love are the main keys that open these doors. People coming from the 16th level are typically dreamers. But they approach their work quite seriously, despite all their imagination, in most cases choosing professions related to exact sciences. Seekers prefer to do only what interests them, have a practical mind, and adequately perceive their strengths. At the same time, they are always searching for something new, exploring the diversity of the world. They understand that truth is somewhere nearby, so they value their freedom very much. Their main fear is losing this freedom.
Seekers try to leave the familiar as quickly as possible and begin exploring the unknown. Because of their desire to know everything, they become true erudites in completely unrelated fields. Of course, deep down they seek self-knowledge, studying religions and esotericism. The soul remembers their aspiration for this light of absolute love. In a negative manifestation, people of the 16th level can become mired in unbelief and loneliness. They doubt and demand facts where simply faith and a feeling of inner sensation are needed. They tend to waste their energy on trifles, avoid difficulties, and shy away from making decisions and concrete actions in favor of learning and study. To be in balance, a Seeker needs to understand that they are not obliged to stand still, work their whole life at the same job, or live in the same place. They need to realize that truth is everywhere, as love permeates all existence. The Seeker also needs to stop from time to time to analyze their path. Do not forget in the eternal race for knowledge to give yourself time to rest.
"The seeker of adventures is the most striking example of a person living in the present." - Georg Simmel.
15th Level: Spirit-Inventors
The main goal of such spirits is to attract and create everything new. They try with all their love to bring benefits and innovations to ensure convenience or manage complexity. Inventors are drawn to progress, a thirst for knowledge, a search for the new, and a desire to change the world for the better. People coming to us from the 15th level are innovators. They are kind, religious; they are the scientists who rely on the call of their hearts, and their hearts call them into the unknown. Inventors are erudites; from childhood, their hands and minds seek knowledge, taking apart watches, reading books, asking awkward questions; they are fidgets with flexible thinking. These are people who rarely sit still; in childhood, they are kids with a motor. Such a reserve of energy must be channeled in the right direction from a young age, so that it is for creation.
Another component of success for an inventor is breadth of vision; do not limit your mind with templates; your head works directly with the ether; you are one step ahead of progress; strive to listen to your heart and inner self. Therefore, it is important to be able to take risks, sometimes make ambiguous decisions, and not give up even in very difficult situations. Of course, you are very saddened by the disbelief and ignorance of others towards your ideas; here it is important to understand that wisdom comes with time; with patience and work, you will achieve success, and then kindred souls will appear. Choose your loyal associates. Inventors have a soft heart, but a thousand failures and betrayals can force them to build a massive shell around themselves; know that behind the external coldness hides a child. They are indeed eternal children who have grown into gloomy adults.
In a negative manifestation, people from the 15th level are loners, tyrants. Fanatics of their craft with an unhealthy attitude. To prevent this from happening, remember that all geniuses found support within themselves; the core inside you is given from above; do not waste it on a victim mentality and aggression. Channel your strength into the work you dreamed of as a child.
"Young man, you don't understand how the world works. I have not had any failures. I have successfully identified five thousand ways that are no good. As a result, I am five thousand ways closer to the way that will work." - Thomas Edison
14th Level: Researchers
These Spirits are captivated by seeing signs of the Creator's manifestation in everything. But their minds still battle with themselves and try in every way to apply logic and prove everything and everyone. They seek the laws of the Universe; their hearts burn with the fire of knowledge. People from the 14th level are travelers, fascinated by the search for the unknown, hoarders, lovers of antiquity. Their fantastic mind analyzes everything, absolutely everything, but the heart says something else: the impossibility of proving everything and everyone; in many things, there is only faith. But these are analysts with sharp minds. They are loners; their doubts about everything make those around them doubt even themselves. They are excellent orators.
We need Researchers, because someone must doubt teachings and scientists; that's how progress works. A Researcher is a knowledgeable, inquisitive person with high intelligence and logical thinking. They need good memory, quick wit, and mental flexibility. They must be ready to work with large amounts of information, as well as be able to systematize it and draw meaningful conclusions. In a negative manifestation, these people lose their wings. Parents of children from the 14th level, do not deprive your children of this opportunity – to fly! Your heart is your guide. Do not force yourself to flow in one river; you are multifaceted.
"To research means to see what everyone has seen and to think what no one has thought." - Albert Szent-Györgyi
13th Level: Aesthetes
Aesthetes are people who value beauty in all its manifestations. They know how to find art where others see ordinariness. This is not just a hobby, but a special outlook on the world. They see God's goodness, His love for us through the beauty of His creation! Aesthetes are educated and refined. They will not allow themselves inappropriate behavior and will not tolerate such behavior in others. They are people with big hearts; they have a delicate, vulnerable soul. The character of an aesthete is little understood by those around them. It is hard for people with a jaded gaze to see the beautiful in the ordinary every day. And this is the main talent of people of the 13th level.
They teach us that life is the everydayness of our existence, living here and now. Seeing God's care not only over long distances but every day. This is a very important skill, not easily achieved by everyone. Life without beauty and the constant manifestation of art and harmony in every little thing will seem unnecessary and gray to an aesthete. They are quite capricious in choosing friends and life partners, but if such people are near you, it means your soul is beautiful, even if you don't notice it. They are loyal friends and colleagues; despite all their refinement, they will boldly rush to help. They value their family and are firmly connected to it; they are wonderful parents. In negativity, their pride devours everything, including themselves. They become empty, in the position of a child with narcissistic disorder. They lose their main skill – simplicity equals beauty.
Do not extinguish your light; you carry a message to this world that beauty can change the world for the better. A person endowed with refined aesthetic taste is not only a critic of others but also the harshest critic of themselves. - Eugene Ryabyi
12th Level: Spirit-Builders
Their path is their work; they dedicate themselves to labor, are absolutely not afraid of difficult work, they "build" for the benefit of their neighbors, and value kindness and generosity of soul. Their gift lies in their hands; the Creator placed the warmth of their hearts precisely there. People born as Builders are people of labor. People of labor are strong, purposeful, strong-willed individuals. They are people devoted to their work. They are true craftsmen; their golden hands give warmth to everything they do. Animals love them, because a big, kind heart is ready to give comfort and care to everyone. They are people of the Earth; our planet needs the energy of such strong people; they are not afraid to get grounded and take on hard work for the benefit of our beautiful home.
People from the 12th level also feel the presence of God in all their work; observing their deeds, they see this invisible care. They feel a good connection with the planet; they are also excellent athletes; they also often go into complex medical professions requiring endurance; these are also people in creative professions requiring strength and patience, such as felters or carpenters, modern artisans. They value comfort and strive to provide it to their neighbors. In general, labor permeates our entire life; it will be for our good and to our liking, and its purpose will be for the good of the world and neighbor. So the main thing for Builder people is to listen to their inner world and find the activity where they can reveal their talent. Then their activity will be saturated with their energy, the energy of their strength and love. In a negative manifestation, such people are rude, distrustful, too grounded, work for the sake of work or carelessly, thereby wasting their health. You need to remember that you are true conductors of earthly energy, teachers for us all; teach us not to be ashamed of working hard and with our hands; remember that a person without labor dries up faster than a drop in the sun.
"When work is pleasure, life is good! When work is duty, life is slavery!" - Maxim Gorky, "The Lower Depths"
11th Level: Consumers
Spirits of the 11th level are true workaholics and hedonists. They work, creating comfort around themselves and giving it abundantly to their loved ones. They are very intelligent, pedantic, and demanding. They firmly believe that everyone deserves happiness and that everyone's happiness is their own; they teach us to find pleasure in the everyday, in the simple, worldly, and that is also a great science. People born at the 11th level recognize the unconditional value of earthly life. It is commonly thought that Consumers are selfish, but this is a mistake. They simply, unlike many, know how to derive pleasure from food and rest, but they also enjoy work, study, and sports. On the contrary, they are the very workaholics who have found their calling and do it better than anyone, with great love, dedicating themselves to it, all because it brings them maximum satisfaction.
They are people of intellect, innovators who know how to simplify the complex by inventing new things. They are perfectly aware that the path to a dream is thorny, and difficulties are just one of the stages that will make life better. So they are by no means lazy; they simply value comfort, both their own and that of their loved ones. Yes, they like to eat well and rest well, but their morals are strict; they do well for themselves without forgetting society. Consumer people are born with a strong psyche; they are courageous and good-natured. They have strict moral rules. They are true breadwinners, knowing that what makes them happy is themselves, so self-discipline is their most important rule for obtaining benefits, but they also demand it from others, sometimes to the point of tyranny.
People of the 11th level are interested in philosophy, music, esotericism, and have a more mathematical mind. The coldness of their character stems more from knowing their boundaries than from anything negative. In a negative manifestation, they are always looking for the ideal place to work, constantly studying without engaging in activity. Or vice versa, they work without rest, even though rest fills them with energy. They are impatient with criticism, do not listen to others' opinions, and do not analyze the situation. You are given the opportunity to find the life experience of enjoying being human, for we are His children; He gave us the chance to walk the earthly path, combining work and rest. A Consumer is a person capable of bringing benefit to society without harming their own beliefs and principles.
"If you have spent the day doing good deeds, in the evening you will always feel joy." - Thomas à Kempis.
10th Level: Warriors
Warriors are those who care about justice. Such spirits are warriors of light; they are impatient when the innocent are offended, and, of course, they will not let themselves be offended. A warrior is always results-oriented. A warrior does not seek battle, does not provoke conflicts, as it might seem. Quite the opposite, they would be happy with a peaceful flow of life; they calmly channel their energy of masculinity and strength into work and achieving benefits. Therefore, although Warriors strive for victory, they value life above all else.
Warrior people are passion, power, focus, activity, active energy, and enterprise. Warriors are characterized by a strong will and a heightened sense of justice. These are the people who go through fire and water, saving, protecting, defending rights: surgeons, EMERCOM rescuers, special forces, often volunteers, sometimes entrepreneurs. Warriors are people who always keep their word. They honor honor, see any task through to the end. They teach us to strive for success, overcome weaknesses, prove to ourselves and the world that everything is possible! To believe in our dreams, to fight internal fears.
In a negative manifestation, this is a flaw in people losing their strength. They become victims, blaming everyone around them for their inadequacy. They can destroy everything in aggression, drawing conclusions without analysis. Such people need to understand that their strength is a gift; you are warriors of light, use such powerful energy wisely for good. Always listen to all participants, analyze, make balanced decisions with a cool head.
"No one in the world loves peace as much as warriors who have been in a fight." - Philippa Gregory, "The White Queen".
9th Level: Students
First and foremost, these are spirits open to knowledge; they try to study various sciences, are very creative, and approach things thoroughly. People born from the 9th level are strong-willed, curious, and able to work in different fields. You will meet Students in a wide variety of professions. The most important thing for a student is to choose a strategy and path, not to waste energy on everything at once, to think about what truly interests you, then you will succeed in everything you put effort into. You study meticulously, strive to do everything with quality and beauty. You are an aesthetic student, love communication, and perceive justified criticism well.
People of the 9th level question what is alien to them; in ignorance, they get lost and may react aggressively, but they quickly calm down, and their drive and curiosity kick in, filling the gap with knowledge. Students are young souls, but with difficult experiences in past incarnations, hence this doubt, a protective mechanism for maintaining safety. They try with all their might to transform from a student into a teacher, and credit must be given to them, with the experience of the worldly path, they become so. In essence, we are all students on our life path, so we have much to learn from a student. The student is open to knowledge, which means the universe will generously give them experience; here you just need to set the direction and field. Everyone goes through this path from student to master; you cannot skip this valuable experience, otherwise you will become a useless specialist.
"I have learned much from my teachers, more from my colleagues, but most of all from my students." (Talmud, Ta'anit)
8th Level: Jinns
Jinns are subtle-material beings and are an integral part of it. They, like all spirits of the natural world, do not divide situations and people into bad and good; duality is not characteristic of them. Jinns are spirits that can change form, and they are created from fire and air. The word "jinn" itself comes from the Arabic "ja-na-na," meaning "to hide, to conceal." Jinns, as nature spirits, help where they dwell. They ensure the soil is fertile, rivers do not flood all living things, and fire does not burn crops. They can also help people, considering us an integral part of nature.
Where do jinns live? Jinns, who were overcome by angels, spread to all corners of the earth, choosing the most remote and inaccessible places to live: islands, caves, and forests. They protect their homes and take care of their territories. People coming from the 8th level have a bright, agile mind. They are usually physically strong and drawn to studying physics and chemistry. They enjoy doing heavy work. They are distinguished by business acumen; they choose partners equally with heart and mind. They do not like to judge a person; they always rely only on how the interlocutor treats them. They can be businesslike and silent. They are distinguished by great imagination. They fiercely protect their family, especially loving children.
Jinn people see through your intentions; they can respond rudely if they think you were plotting against them, and not just respond, but severely punish. But they will also be grateful to you and will never forget if you helped them wholeheartedly. Jinns are needed by our nature and planet; they are warrior-defenders. You have a big heart, but the mind must be cool so that your strength is directed towards good deeds.
"Give a person everything they desire, and at that very moment they will feel that everything is not everything." - Immanuel Kant
7th Level: Elementals
These are spirits created from the four elements; they are among the most ancient subtle-material beings. They were created along with the planet they inhabit, as everything around is made from five energies: water, earth, fire, and air – founded on the energy of all-encompassing love. The first mention of these beings is found in Paracelsus (an alchemist, physician, philosopher who lived in the 16th century). They are wary of humans, as humans have repeatedly tried to subjugate them for their own destructive purposes. Elementals are the building blocks of nature. Practically, they are pure energy and consciousness. When we come into contact with them, they have a very deep impact on us.
People born from the 7th level are harmonious; they have warm, kind hands. A big, loving heart. They subtly sense every change around them. These people often engage in studying psychology and relationships, both interpersonal and political/international. These are also people in medicine. They become excellent veterinarians, nurses, or doctors. They adopt the quality of not dividing people into good and bad; they live by heart and feelings. They have difficulty living where they are uncomfortable and try to create the most pleasant conditions for themselves. They care for their family and loved ones. They can easily get angry but are quick to forgive. Such people need to understand that your thoughts are material; anger is not the best form of defense for you. Your mind is the cosmos; give it benevolent intentions.
"When you feel bad, listen to nature. The silence of the world calms better than millions of unnecessary words." - Confucius
6th Level: Archons
Archons are essentially demons. In some incarnation, being a spirit, they went against their essence and destroyed love and faith in their hearts. Thereby they descended to the level of passing in this incarnation. Archons do not want to hear; they are in the darkness of their soul, lost and chose the path of dark service. They became warriors and leaders in the society of evil spirits. Now their task is to break out of this circle and gain the experience of seeking light in their soul. And this is extremely difficult to do; one must go a long way to gain this hope and faith, to see and doubt the correctness of their existence.
If you came from this level, know that you are great, despite your difficult experience, you still found that light. Your task is to gain the ability to trust; yes, this is very difficult, because you remember that pain and feel pressure from the side of your difficult path of reincarnations. But know that you are a leader, you have enormous willpower. You will pull anyone out, take on the most difficult path; you just need to trust yourself a little and find inner support in the form of love and faith. Lean on your inner light, hear your self. Do not deceive yourself, learn new things.
"A bright person is not one who does not know darkness, but one who knows both light and darkness, but time after time, undergoing trials, makes the right choice, following the call of the heart." - Rina Miloradova
5th Level: Demons
Demons are fallen angels. They have lost the light and now lead an exiled life. They could choose this path themselves or come to it through their actions. But now they have lost the light of their soul and try in every way to prove the imperfection of unconditional love. If you came from the fifth level, it means you have been given a chance, or you still found that part of the un-lost light in your heart. You are, of course, great adventurers, but credit must be given: you are very afraid of making a misstep. Thereby you put up an invisible protection around yourself, give the impression of being complex, unemotional people, you can sharply express your opinion, but then greatly regret it. Such is your protection.
People of the fifth level often choose professions related to documents or money, where a lot of monotonous, complex, responsible work is needed. For example, economists, accountants, analysts, document specialists. You try to doubt everything, often double-check everything you are told. You stick to your truth. You need to learn to combine your pragmatic mind with trust and openness of your future heart. Learn to trust yourself a little and at least your loved ones. Of course, it's very difficult, but you must understand that doing everything yourself is impossible; you will only become more disappointed in people through your mistrust. Your heart yearns for love, for blessed knowledge.
"Do not complain about the darkness. Become a small source of light yourself." - Bernard Werber.
4th Level: Besy (Malevolent Spirits)
Besy were once bright angels but rebelled against God and fell away from Him, resulting in being cast out of heaven. Despite their fall, besy retained all the properties of their angelic nature, so they possess consciousness, high intelligence, memory, feelings, have self-awareness, and are incorporeal. If you came from the fourth level, it means you came to gain growth experience, to learn to see the light again; free will is given to us all, which means you decided to do good and regain your wings. People with such experience have a delicate spiritual organization; they find it hard to trust, difficult to make contact. But they have a burning desire to help; they have a highly developed sense of justice, sometimes reaching an unhealthy understanding of it. Here you will need self-discipline; choose sports and related professions.
Medicine, firefighting, doctoring – these are professions where you can express your sense of responsibility, your magnificent sharp mind, and helping people will be a pleasure for you. You need to try to avoid senseless aggression in its unhealthy behavior; watch your speech and diet; alcohol and other bad habits do not affect your spirit in the best way. Listen to your heart; you once radiated magnificent light, which means it has been reborn in you; support it with good deeds, do not forget that when we love ourselves, we can love others. Love yourself without egoism, but do not let your spirit be extinguished.
"Joy is elevated love; peace is responsive love; long-suffering is enduring love; gentleness is love in society; kindness is love in action; faith is love on the battlefield; meekness is love in difficult situations; and temperance is love in training." - Dwight L. Moody
3rd Level: Asuras
Asuras are demons obsessed with egoism. At some point in their incarnation, for some reason, they fell into a victim mentality. They began to care only about themselves, in an absolutely negative manifestation, their own benefits outweighed the significance of all others. If you came from the third level, it means you decided to overcome your egoism and walk the difficult path of finding faith. You have a sharp mind and, of course, you are excellent strategists. You are wonderful analysts. And, of course, people from the third level know how to earn material benefits through their hard work. You have a lot of energy; do not waste it on self-flagellation or anger. Pacify your ego, leave the healthy part, and move towards your good dreams. Do not forget to help your neighbors. Learn to love anew.
You are wonderful parents with a lot of enthusiasm and energy. Like no one else, you can do more than two things at once, and very well, not carelessly. Asuras can achieve great things; let these deeds bring benefit and light to your loved ones and the people around you.
"Faith brings into our lives such freedom, such love, such peace, and such joy that there are no words in any language that could explain it. You must have it to know it. You must experience it to understand it. Faith liberates. It liberates love and hope. If I am free to love and free to hope, what more could I want from life?" - Catherine Doherty
2nd Level: Rakshasas
Rakshasas are demons and masters of illusion. They plunged into darkness, extinguished the light in their hearts. They went through a difficult experience in the past that plunged them into darkness. Nevertheless, rakshasas have a certain code of honor and do not mind fighting in a "fair battle." War is their favorite pastime. People from the second level came to gain the experience of peace. They value this blessing – having the experience of enjoying the simple; they see flaws everywhere. They see ego everywhere and in themselves, thereby not allowing themselves to love themselves. The task, not only for them but also for their loved ones, is to teach them to love the small, to love and value themselves. And then they will fill their hearts with faith, faith in their own strength and the power of love.
People coming from the second level often choose professions related to land or natural resources: agriculturalists, architects, engineers. They have a mathematical mind; they are good at things where you need to think and make a decision slowly, weighing and analyzing everything. They are not hot-tempered, but if you offend them, you are unlikely to regain their trust. They are freedom-loving, love to travel, study culture and languages. They adapt perfectly to their place of residence and are not capricious.
"Faith is belief in the unknown. Faith heals, faith creates, faith works miracles, faith moves mountains. Faith is the searchlight for finding God." - Sivananda
1st Level: Bhutas
Bhutas are demons who have lost all hope in themselves and have forgotten the light of their soul at its inception. They remember only pain and anger. It is difficult for them to find the path to the light because they have simply lost these memories. These are also often very young souls who immediately received a very painful negative experience and could not accept it, and began to deny their own benevolent existence. People of the first level came to learn to live anew, to live with the capacity to love, to see the light, to gain experience in helping others, and to accept help from others. They need, like children, to learn to choose their own path of knowledge, to choose a profession where their heart can learn the experience of love anew.
People of the first level are like children; despite all the difficult past experiences, they are sincerely surprised by simple things; those close to them need to support this light, to see the magic of creation in the everyday. They strive for learning; their minds absorb knowledge. You can choose any path; rely on your heart. Choose it with understanding and responsibility. Accept that sometimes it will be hard, but the main thing here is to keep moving, and do not forget that the path of our growth is life itself; rest is as necessary as our labor, to overcome the next step. Do not lose yourself in the search for your calling.
"People get into fast trains, but they themselves don't know what they are looking for, so they know no peace, rushing first in one direction, then in another... And all in vain... Eyes are blind. One must search with the heart." - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Description of the Levels of Spirits
After the final separation of the spirit from the material body, it first enters the astral world, which serves as a kind of antechamber or "waiting hall" for discarnate spirits. Usually, they are met there by Angel Guides who, together with their own Guardian Angel, explain what happened and escort them to their eternal home – the world of unincarnated spirits. It is located slightly further from manifested matter than the astral world, in terms of its vibration level, being the next dimension of the spiritual world.
The world of unincarnated spirits is divided into 24 levels, a detailed description of which will be given below. It is there that all spirits await their turn for incarnation, and their life is no less vibrant, rich, and interesting than life in bodies in the material world.
Why do we come here again and again? To manifest accumulated experience, radiate our energy, show feelings, share thoughts, and to acquire new experience that allows us to get closer to that Source of Life, whose Power we feel so clearly in the spiritual world, where we are no longer distracted by the needs of material bodies.
The world of unincarnated spirits consists of twenty-four levels. Spirits dwelling above are perceived by us from here as living on the twenty-fourth, because beyond that, for us, there is only Light, not divided into separate spiritual entities.
1 Bhutas - the lowest vibrational spirits. They have so closed their Light with greed, lust, and envy that they have completely forgotten about the existence of God, suppressed their reasoning mind, closed their hearts to all goodness, and rejoice only in one thing – when other beings experience pain and mental anguish. Then they feel that they are not the only ones feeling so bad and temporarily calm down from their chronic dissatisfaction with everything and their more or less constant persecution mania.
2 Rakshasas - spirits so filled with the energies of anger, hatred, and vengefulness that they direct all their activity towards violence against others, believing this to be the best way to protect and promote their ideas. They forget about the freedom of choice given by God to others and recognize the right to it only for themselves. They readily enter into any form of conflict, sincerely believing that a goal they consider good justifies any means.
3 Asuras - spirits who, due to their pride and arrogance, do not see the needs of other people. All their activity is aimed at satisfying their various desires, the fulfillment of which replaces for them the joy of being in God's Love. In the heat of their passions, they pay no attention to the manifestation of Light within themselves, through intuition and the voice of conscience.
4 Besy (Malevolent Spirits) - spirits so absorbed in the pleasures obtained through the material body that they forget the law of energy conservation. They desire to endlessly enjoy diverse material energies and become very irritated when an obstacle arises in their path, even if it is living people. They often do not observe God's law of waiting for one's turn for incarnation and inhabit the bodies of incarnated spirits that match their vibrations.
5 Demons - spirits so disillusioned with life in the material world that they have come to a complete denial of its value and to accusations against God for creating and sustaining it with His Energy. The degree and reasons for this denial vary, but common traits are apparent asceticism and religiosity, combined with harsh condemnation of dissenters and a certain squeamishness towards any form of matter or material activity.
6 Archons - spirits with similar beliefs and actions to demons, but differing from them in their particular character structure, slightly higher vibrations, and the feeling of inspiration and sincerity with which they commit evil deeds. Due to well-developed strategic thinking and glimpses of intuition, sometimes accessible at this level, they become leaders among other evil spirits, like the well-known biblical figure Lucifer, who currently dwells at the sixth level.
These leaders form from demons peculiar societies based on strict subordination and reverence for leaders, with fairly harsh punishments for disobedience and apostasy. These societies resemble, in many ways, military brigades, totalitarian sects, and gangster groups in the world of unincarnated spirits.
7 Elementals - spirits who strive to incarnate in plasmoid worlds responsible for specific natural elements. They emerged from the demon world and dedicated their energy to managing nature and creating animal souls. Their own power still attracts them to such an extent that they may ignore the needs of their family, oppose society as a whole, and not desire sincere turning to God. But they have already moved away from demonic egoism and now, by creating animal souls and managing them, they learn to love someone other than themselves selflessly.
8 Jinns - these spirits are very similar to elementals, but unlike them, they possess a broader outlook, greater outward focus, better organizational skills, and friendliness.
They also strive to incarnate in subtle-material worlds, but unlike elementals, they more often do so not in plasmoids managing the elements, but in their direct supervisors who oversee specific places in the material world: fields, forests, bodies of water, houses, etc. They also participate in creating animal souls and help elementals manage natural elements.
9 Students - spirits who learn to direct their attention and energy towards other personalities near them. They incarnate to learn, often through their own bitter experience, the moral laws of the society where they are born. Often they are skeptics, believing nothing and no one except their own eyes and ears, and usually think their senses cannot be deceived.
Life often debunks this misconception quite harshly, and it is very important at this level not to become embittered by the blows of fate and not to fall even lower, which can happen if one completely accepts everything that happens as God's will.
10 Warriors - spirits whose main goal is to restore justice as they understand it. Compassion for the suffering of others and for their own allows them to achieve sufficiently high vibrations, but the implementation of their plans is often associated with condemning dissenters and using violent methods of influence.
Unlike rakshasas, warriors fight not for their own ideas, not for the selfish promotion of their power, but for ideas they sincerely and ardently believe are socially beneficial. They are rebels and revolutionaries, burning with a dream of social well-being, but overlooking the law of similarity, according to which negativity, even manifested for good purposes, can only give birth to other negativity.
11 Consumers - spirits who have learned all the delights of the material world in receiving various sensual pleasures and who spend their energy working for money that can provide them with pleasant things.
Unlike besy, they will not cross moral norms, let alone the laws of the society they live in, but their hearts are occupied with the desire for material goods, and their minds with thoughts of how to acquire them and what to spend them on for greater enjoyment. Busy with such concerns from morning till night, they often have neither the time nor the desire to think about their spiritual development, let alone make any effort in that direction.
12 Builders - spirits for whom the main goal is to create comfortable living conditions for themselves and their loved ones in the material world. They are ready to work hard for this, both physically and mentally, but often consider matter, if not the only reality, then the most important condition for peace of mind and harmony, which they call happiness.
Spiritual pursuits are often incomprehensible and boring to them, although they usually do not condemn such things in others, but they are closer to the joy of a job well done than to music or a book, let alone prayer or meditation.
13 Aesthetes - spirits who begin to understand that the level of happiness does not depend on material well-being. Many of them still doubt this, but feeling a surge of Light in their souls from works of art, they can be moved to tears or fall into a state of delight completely incomprehensible to Consumer spirits, who see, read, and listen to the same things but do not experience such a variety and depth of emotions. For aesthetes, enjoyment of literature, music, painting, and other manifestations of other people's creativity surpasses the enjoyment of pleasures obtained through the body.
14 Researchers - spirits who find joy in learning the laws of the material world in all its diversity. They can study nature, society, or themselves; they may see God behind all this, but they also want to know Him and categorize His laws and energies. They do not always succeed in verifying harmony with algebra, so such spirits often cannot understand the difference between faith and knowledge, but still, their innate logic and analysis help them feel that the world is arranged much more complexly than it seems.
15 Inventors - spirits for whom the highest happiness lies in creativity, in creating something that has never existed before. It doesn't matter what it is: new pie recipes, perpetual motion machines, or political party programs. For them, the main thing is to make other spirits happy with the truth that has been revealed to them and in whose usefulness for everyone and for all time they firmly believe. Inventors passionately carry their Light to everyone they meet and are very upset when they are not understood. True, with experience comes the wisdom that one cannot prove truths to a person who is not ready to grasp them, and when readiness comes, the need for proof disappears.
16 Seekers - spirits whose task is to find the way to the world of good spirits, to the world of angels, where the Light shines much brighter than in the world of average spirits. Seekers see glimpses of this Light everywhere and always. The main thing for them is not to fall into dogmatism and not to limit their thinking. They have outgrown such experiences and now see the good principle in all religions and spiritual teachings. A characteristic feature of Seekers is dissatisfaction with their spiritual development, a constant striving for perfection.
Many of them already feel that all books on spiritual development, all religious scriptures, will bring no benefit if one does not see and recognize the Light within oneself. But their hearts often tremble before the great mystery of existence, vaguely realizing that darkness is unrecognized Light, and evil is goodness wrongly directed.
17 Angels of Nature - spirits whose service in the spiritual world consists of teaching subtle-material plasmoid civilizations the correct, in God's Light, management of natural elements, the birth of animal souls, and the integration of their energies into a whole. They often incarnate in plasmoid worlds to guide them on the true path and often incarnate in humanoid worlds to more fully feel natural energies and learn to work with them.
18 Guardian Angels - spirits whose main mission in the spiritual world is to care for incarnated spirits from various levels. The Light of Love they realize allows them to endure, forgive, and protect even the most ungrateful and malicious spirits.
A Guardian can sincerely and lovingly care for a demon, rejoicing at the slightest sprouts of goodness in its soul, and, more importantly, can understand and forgive if the demon suddenly tramples those sprouts and throws them at their benefactor. Every incarnated spirit who wishes to have one at incarnation has a Guardian Angel. One incarnated spirit may have several Guardian Angels, and a Guardian Angel, especially an experienced one, may also have several charges.
The task of Angels is to protect their charges from evil spirits, ward off bad thoughts, and inspire kind and bright images that help them move towards God.
19 Angel-Prophets - spirits whose main task is to convey the Word of God, His laws, to the minds and hearts of all spirits. The word "prophet" here means a messenger of God's will, not a clairvoyant. It must be remembered that the future is multi-variant, so it is impossible to predict exactly what will happen next. Any, even the most negative, forecast is a reason for reflection and attempts to steer events in a more constructive direction.
The task of Prophets is to teach incarnated and unincarnated spirits that true, spiritual, selfless Love that shines in them with an endless Light and extends to all who come into their field.
20 Angel-Healers - spirits whose work in the spiritual world is to heal other spirits, both incarnated and unincarnated. The word "healing" is understood in the broadest sense, as restoring the wholeness of body, energy, consciousness, etc.
Healers cannot tolerate any disorder or chaos; it causes them almost physical pain and a desire to bring everything into line with the understanding of the world order they have achieved at the present moment. Also, spirits from this level feel others' pain, both physical and mental, very acutely.
21 Angel-Guides - spirits whose task in the spiritual world is to meet spirits who have permanently left their material bodies and escort them through the astral plane to the world of unincarnated spirits, to the level they achieved during their life in the body. The Guides' task also includes accompanying spirits, whose turn for incarnation has come, into the material world and helping them connect with their future body.
Guides often travel through the astral plane, meeting various spiritual entities at different levels of spiritual and intellectual development, therefore they possess flexible thinking, consciousness capable of adapting to different circumstances, and the ability to quickly orient themselves in their surroundings and find common ground with a wide variety of rational beings.
22 Angel-Consultants - spirits whose main task is to help other spirits select the best conditions for incarnation for their spiritual development. They possess well-developed symbolic thinking, knowledge of all the subtleties of karmic psychology, the laws of existence in material worlds of different densities, and have access to Divine knowledge about each spirit that seeks their help in selecting an incarnation.
They must consider many factors conducive to the development of specific spirits in the Light of Love within themselves and correlate them with astrological and numerological data in the material world, adequate descriptions of the incarnating spirit and its tasks, for its recognition by individuals prepared for this.
23 Arhats - spirits who, while dwelling in the spiritual world, help form and develop high-vibrational egregors in the material world. They understand the importance of correct ideology for the development of social and family relations conducive to the spiritual growth of all those incarnating in that family and society. For them, any law written on paper or other material medium will have no meaning if it is not reflected in the minds and hearts of rational beings. Arhats are creators of reality, inspirers, and ideologists of political, religious, and informal popular communities, whose goal is to bring the Light of God in a form that is close and understandable to them at their current stage of development.
24 Devas - spirits who have fully realized their potential and united their energy with the Divine. In them, there is nothing left but Love and the potential possibility of degradation upon lowering their vibrations. This possibility is embedded in every rational spirit without exception, as a necessary condition of freedom and personal responsibility, in which we can spiritually grow and perfect ourselves, learning the unconditional Love of our Heavenly Father, so that He can later, completely calmly, give us His abilities to create and change material worlds.
This possibility is realized at the 24th level of the material world, upon reaching which spirits see before them an infinite staircase of ever-greater merging with the Divine Light. Spirits incarnating into the material world from this level consciously accept misunderstanding and rejection from others so that each may discover within themselves the Light shining in their souls. Devas have almost no feelings other than Love, which gives birth to faith, hope, patience, mercy, and many other manifestations.
A spirit dwelling at a lower level cannot visit a spirit living at a higher level until it reaches that level in its consciousness, but a spirit living at a higher level can, if desired, come to a spirit at a lower level by lowering its vibrations.
This is what the Hierarchy of the world of unincarnated spirits looks like from the perspective of researchers of the spiritual world of the interstellar union.
