What is an angel?

An angel is a being or substance that is pure spirit. Angels have intellect and will and therefore exercise knowledge and love, but they have no body and do not live an embodied form of life.

Each angel is essentially a center of consciousness without a body, but we must qualify this and say that angels are conscious in a far greater way than human beings.

Because they have no bodies, angels do not see, taste, smell, touch, hear, imagine or remember sensory things – and they have no sensory passions.
