The "Abyss" symbolism belongs to the "single tree" version
promulgated by the Golden Dawn, but disappears when the fuller version
is known and used.  There would be a kind of "borderline," to use
Maxim's term, at Tiphareth in Briah.

        Alan: what's this fuller version? Usually one encounters
one single tree. Some people make it into two trees, or rather
render a dualistic version of the tree.
And some talk about four trees of life, one for each of the Four Kabbalistic
Worlds. Is that the fuller version you're talking about?
