Sephiroth

The Sephiroth is the true, Heavenly term for one's mind which, in the Cysti storyline, also happens to be one's "soul" or link to God. The Sephiroth also refers to the virtues instilled into living beings, namely Man, which allows them to not act on impulse and "think". It represents Reason, whereas the Qliphoth represents Desire.

Paths
There are ten paths in one's Sephiroth: The Kether, the Binah, the Chokmah, the Daas, the Gevurah, the Hesed, the Tiphereth, the Hod, the Netzach, the Yesod, and the Malkuth. These ten paths make up the foundation for an individual's personality, which can either be embraced or rejected depending on the person. Like the Qliphoth, the Sephiroth can be manifested though only in one's mind through meditation.

Trivia

 * It has sometimes been referred to as the Tree of Life.
 * It is a clear reference to the Sephira in Jewish Kabbalah.
 * Whether rejected or embraced, the Sephiroth is one's life force. If it is cut off, the person dies. This is not the case for Aerandir, strangely enough, whose cutting off of his Sephiroth transformed him into a "Wound of God". As for Bael, Lucifer, Sadow, and Akihiro, their Sephiroths are suppressed on behalf of the Qliphoth, though Sadow could still faintly hear his own which is why he remained a somewhat virtuous figure.
 * It's symbolic duality with the Qliphoth is similar to the concept of Ying and Yang; opposites connected by their differences.
