'''{{Style S-Small capitals|Q’lippoth}}''', or ''Klippoth''. The world of Demons or Shells; the same as the Aseeyatic World, called also ''Olam Klippoth''. It is the residence of ''Samâel'', the Prince of Darkness in the Kabbalistic allegories. But note what we read in the ''Zohar'' (ii.43''a'') “For the service of the Angelic World, the Holy. . . . made Samâel and his legions, ''i.e.'', the world of action, who are as it were the clouds to be used (by the higher or upper Spirits, our ''Egos'') to ride upon in their descent to the earth, and serve, as it were, for their horses”. This, in conjunction with the fact that Q’lippoth contains the matter of which stars, planets, and even men are made, shows that Samâel with his legions is simply chaotic, turbulent matter, which is used in its finer state by spirits to robe themselves in. For speaking of the “vesture” or form ''(rupa)'' of the incarnating ''Egos'', it is said in the Occult Catechism that they, the Mânasaputras or Sons of Wisdom, use for the consolidation of their forms, in order to descend into lower spheres, the ''dregs of Swabhavat,'' or that plastic matter which is throughout Space, in other words, primordial ''ilus''. And these dregs are what the Egyptians have called Typhon and modern Europeans Satan, Samâel, etc., etc. ''Deus est Demon inversus''—the Demon is the ''lining'' of God.
