World Frequently used to signify various facts of nature: a cosmic plane or subplane, a cosmic sphere, or less accurately an entire cosmic hierarchy. Hence it is common to speak of superior and inferior worlds, or worlds of spirit and of matter, which are not separated from each other; for the worlds of spirit or the superior worlds are the origins of the lower or inferior worlds, as these latter are in the course of cosmic emanation unfolded from cosmic space.
 
A division is generally made between the superior (arupa or formless) worlds and the inferior (rupa or form) worlds, the latter situated on the four lower planes of the septenary hierarchy. These are also referred to as the noumenal and phenomenal, unmanifested and manifested, "the worlds of Idea and the worlds of Matter. ''As above, so below,'' states the Hermetic philosophy. This lower world is formed on its prototype -- the higher world; and ''everything in the lower is but an image (a reflection) of the higher.'' (Zohar, ii, fol. 20 A.)" (TG 372).
