This could apply to individuals, institutions, or even concepts that are held in higher regard or possess greater influence. For example, a leader or an expert in a field might be described as being in a kõrgemalseisvat position.

Metaphorically, kõrgemalseisvat can refer to a state of being morally or intellectually superior. It can imply a level of development, understanding, or ethical standing that is considered more advanced or refined. This usage often suggests an ideal to strive for or a benchmark against which others are measured.
