Hierarchy
The universe has hierarchies of beings that stem from the source of creation.
As the universe is layered, so are its creatures. Higher and lower.
Everyone is included, and no one is excluded from this law: in some hierarchies, one excels, while in others, one might be last.
Refusal of hierarchy is essentially a refusal of life itself.
In some hierarchies, we might not belong; in others, we might join in the future. But we all belong in the Hierarchy of Life.
Currently, man stands here in the hierarchy: above the earthly soil and the animals, the beasts of burden.
And so, man boasts arrogantly over those beneath him in ignorance and violence, for his soul is detached from the World Soul, which would otherwise help him recognize the hierarchy of order.
But man stands in the middle of this dimension; above him hover greater dreams.
Above him are the Heroes, the Daemons, and the Gods.
And beneath him, the deadly abyss of returning back to becoming only soil.
Choose where you will turn your head and which part of the hierarchy you want to belong to, but be careful, for we still have feet and not wings.
Πᾶν τὸ ὂν κατὰ τάξιν ἱεραρχικὴν ἐκ τῆς πρώτης αἰτίας τοῦ κόσμου προέρχεται.
Πολυεπίπεδός ἐστιν ὁ κόσμος· τὰ ὄντα ἄλλα μὲν ὑψηλότερα, ἄλλα δὲ ταπεινότερα κατὰ φύσιν καὶ δύναμιν εὑρίσκεται.
Πάντες ἐν ταύτῃ τῇ τάξει μετέχομεν· ἔν τισιν ὑπερέχομεν, ἔν τισιν ὑστεροῦμεν.
Ὁ τὴν ἱεραρχίαν ἀρνούμενος αὐτὴν τὴν τάξιν τοῦ βίου ἀρνεῖται.
Ἔστιν ἐν ᾧ ἄλλοις ποτὲ συναφθησόμεθα· νῦν δὲ πάντες ἐν τῇ μεγάλῃ τοῦ Βίου Ἱεραρχίᾳ ἑστῶτες ἐσμέν.
Ἐπὶ γῆς ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὑπὲρ γῆν καὶ ζῷα κατὰ τὰς ἰδίας δυνάμεις ἕστηκε.
Ὅταν δ᾽ ὑπερηφανίᾳ καὶ ἀγνοίᾳ τοῖς ὑφ᾽ ἑαυτὸν βιάζηται, τῆς τοῦ κόσμου ψυχῆς ἀποχωρίζεται.
Μέσον τινα τόπον ἐν τῇ τάξει κατέχομεν· ὄναρ δὲ καὶ ἐλπὶς πρὸς τὰ ὑψηλότερα ἀνατείνουσιν.
Ἥρωες, Δαίμονες καὶ Θεοὶ ὑπὲρ ἡμᾶς ἐν τῇ θείᾳ τάξει κεῖνται.
Κάτω δ᾽ ἡ ἄβυσσος καὶ ἡ εἰς γῆν ἐπιστροφὴ ὑπομιμνήσκει τὸ θνητὸν ἡμῶν.
Μετὰ συνέσεως οὖν τὴν πορείαν αἱρώμεθα· πόδες γὰρ ἡμῖν, οὐ πτέρυγες, νῦν δεδομένοι εἰσίν.

Prayer:
“O Master Zeus,
You organized all existence in your Great Design,
You made us all Smaller and Bigger,
Higher and Lower,
On Earth or in Heaven,
You are the Manifested Creator,
The Divine Architect!”
Ancient Greek Code PrayerἩ Ἱεραρχία
Ὦ δέσποτα Ζεῦ,
σὺ πᾶσαν ὕπαρξιν ἐν τῷ μεγάλῳ σχεδίῳ ἔταξας·
σὺ μικροτέρους καὶ μείζονας ἡμᾶς ἐποίησας,
ὑψηλοτέρους καὶ ταπεινοτέρους,
ἐπὶ γῆς ἢ ἐν οὐρανῷ·
δηλωθεὶς Δημιουργέ,
θεῖε Ἀρχιτέκτων.
Ō despota Zeu,
sy pasan hyparxin en tōi megalōi skhediōi etaxas;
sy mikroterous kai meizonas hēmas epoiēsas,
hypsēloterous kai tapeinoterous,
epi gēs ē en ouranōi;
dēlōtheis Dēmiourge,
theie Arkhitektōn.
The prayer addresses Zeus as the ordering creator of the many levels of existence.
