We all ate from the same pot...

Page 31. Around 10 lines from the top. Line starts, “bekochot hagiluim...”

Since it is not a hierarchy, what is the influence between each koach. They have “respect “ for mochin, since it is a superior koach. Mochin receives a different element from the nefesh.

Somehow the midot, though they get influence from the nefesh it is through the mochin, but it occurs in a different way for hidden kochot, than for revealed powers.

The etzem is recognized by the mochin, by chochmah. Sechel is able to see from a distance – chochmah particularly has this ability. It can relate to the etzem. This way you can have a gilui from the etzem through the chochmah.

The sun is a mashal for ohr atzmi. The sun is not just light. Light is what the midot receive. Walking without fear of falling into a ditch is not the experience of light. The light from the sun is not the opposite of darkness, it creates a new state – day light. Day says, “there is no darkness”.

For this reason the nefesh itself is called nefesh hamaskelet. This is because the presence of the nefesh is sensed first in the sechel. This is why it is possible to deny the presence of the nefesh, because you can focus on the functional element of the human being and deny the soul.

The presence and revelation of the nefesh is through sechel. Unto itself it can be referred to as chayah or yechidah.
