Da'at - As Spiritual State

As Spiritual State

The spiritual state corresponding to the sephirah of Daat is yichud ("unification"). This is seen in the etymological use of Daat in the Torah, such as Genesis 4:1 and 4:25 ("Adam knew Eve"), for sexual unification. While the union of Yesod (male/connection) with Malkuth (female/reception) embodies sexual unity in action, in Daat the unity is inward; the union with an idea awakening emotions.
