Yes. It is a reference to offices in Hierarchy as agents of evolution. 
You are opening the door to a vast body of wonderful doctrine. Who is
Hancock?

All good sources for a study of Atlan stories, lore, myths and legends.
(Love that Phylos. Have you read the second Phylos book, "An Earth
Dweller's Return"?) I'd add Plato, Blavatsky, N. Roerich, A.P. Sinnett,
G. de Purucker, W. Scott Elliot, CWL, Manly P. Hall, A.E. Powell, A. A.
Bailey, C. Berlitz, I. Donnelly, E. Churchward,and Geoffrey Ashe among
others. How many more would you like?

I don't think so. I know him only as a compiler of (mainly) CWL and
Annie Besant. He tried to gather theosophical info from multiple sources
on various topics and make it easily accessible.

Nice conversing with you, Giselle.
