Our soul has descended from the ten holy Sefirot. Let's examine how the Sefirot operate: there are three "mothers" and seven "doubles," the seven days of creation. The three highest sefirot activate the seven constructive sefirot, and this is how our soul manifests as well. The three highest faculties of our soul are the cognitive aspects of chochmah (inspiration), binah (understanding), and da'at (internalization). These three faculties of awareness give rise to and shape our emotional experiences.
