Planetary Logos

According to the Theosophy scheme of creation, the Planetary Logos or Ruler of Seven Chains is one of the grades in the hierarchy assisting in the creation and guidance. It is the supreme Logos who initiates this work, but he is helped by the "seven." The seven receive from the Logos the inspiration and each carries on the work in his own Planetary Chain.
