5 soul levels
 
Hi, I've recently learned that Jewish mystical tradition tells about 5 soul levels.
The 'lower' 3 souls levels would encompass our physical body, and the 'upper' 2 would be around our body, like some sort of aura.
Did any of you experience those levels, or feel them inside?
Or, know something more about them?
cheers

Not exactly. The five soul levels are:

Nefesh - The Animal Soul, governing bodily functions, emotions, intellect, imagination. Anything readily accessible in the mind/soul is here.
Ruach - The Connecting Spirit, governing the great void between the Lower Worlds and the Upper Worlds. This represents the base polarities which govern a person (ie. Astrology)
Neshama - The Angelic Soul, governing a person's purpose and sense of inner satisfaction. This is not readily accessible by a person but is expressed in the path one's life takes.
Chaya - The Living Essense, giving a person the possibility of existing at a spiritual level. This level of soul represents pure existence and spiritual health.
Yehidah - The Connection Point, is a person's Soul Root. It is our connection to The Infinite, Immutable God. It is the innermost point which nobody and nothing can touch, our inner purity that can breed repentence, redemption and a return of all other levels to perfection.
