Varying terminology employed (see Lecture Six and onwards) for
the super-sensible worlds:
Rupa-Devachan or Lower Mental plane
Arupa-Devachan or Higher Mental plane
In Rosicrucian Theosophy:
World of Inspiration or of the Harmony of the Spheres
In the Movement that has associated itself with that of the
Rosicrucians: [*This fivefold division is based on a different
approach.]
The Little World or the World of the Intellect
World of the Elements (Elementary World)
World of Spirit (or, occasionally, Heaven World)
World of Archetypal Images or World of Providence
The Astral World might also be called the Soul-World and the
Devachanic World the Spirit-Land. (See the book,
Theosophy)
European languages, if they are honest with themselves,
have as yet no designations suitable for application to the Nirvana
plane.
