DÆMONS
A symbol of intelligences on the buddhic and
higher mental planes, which assist evolution and are related to the
higher emotions and thoughts.
"There are certain mediary divine powers, between Ether above and
earth beneath, situate in that mid-space of air, by whom our desires
and deserts reach the Gods. These the Greeks call dæmons, carriers
between human and heavenly, hence of prayers, thence of gifts; back
and forth they fare, hence with petition, thence with sufficiency,
interpreters and bringers of salvation." - APULEIUS, De Deo Socratis,
6, 132.
The "mid-space of air" signifies the higher mental plane which is in
the middle between the higher and lower natures. By means of the
higher mind, the "bridge of manas," communications pass from the
higher nature to the lower, and from the lower to the higher. The
aspirations of the soul always elicit a Divine response.
