Editing Da'at (section)

===Lower level===
Of this level of Daʻat it is said ([[Book of Proverbs]] 24:4): "And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches." "The rooms" are the chambers of the heart, the emotions of the soul (as alluded to by the word ''[[cheder]]'', "room," which is an acronym for ''[[chesed din rachamim]]'', the three primary emotions of the soul). The inner consciousness of Daʻat fills these rooms and enlivens them as does the soul to the body.{{sfnp|Vital|1997}}

In the [[Zohar]], this level of Daʻat is referred to as "the key that includes six." The "key" of Daʻat opens all six chambers (attributes) of the heart and fills them with [[Energy (esotericism)|life-force]]. Each of these six chambers, when filled with Daʻat, is referred to as a particular ''[[dei'ah]]'' ("attitude," from the root of Daʻat) of the soul.{{sfnp|Idel|1988}}

Daʻat corresponds with the [[interstitium]] in the human body. In the brain, Daʻat is represented by the [[claustrum]]. Though their form is seemingly separate and dissimilar, their function is fairly similar.{{sfnp|Gikatilla|1964}}

<!--Below merged from [[Da'as Elyon and Da'as Tachton]] -->
'''Daas/Daat Elyon''' ("Higher Knowledge") and '''Daas/Daat Tachton''' ("Lower Knowledge") are two alternative levels of perception of reality in [[Hasidic thought]]. Their terms derive from the [[Kabbalistic]] [[sephirot]]: [[Keter]] (above conscious ''Will'') and Da'at (conscious ''Knowledge''), considered two levels of the same unifying principle; the first [[Ohr|encompassing]], the second [[Ohr|internalised]] within the person. In Kabbalah either Keter or Da'at are listed in the 10 sephirot, but not both. While the significance of this duality is limited in Kabbalah to its discussion of the Heavenly realms, the significance, and the terminology of "Higher" and "Lower Knowledge" emerges in the Hasidic internalisation of Kabbalah to describe alternative, paradoxical conscious perceptions of Divine [[Panentheism]] in this material World. ''Upper Knowledge'' refers to the Divine view "from Above", ''Lower Knowledge'' to the Created view "from Below".{{sfnp|Elior|2006}}
