==== Klipos ==== It is stated in the Zohar: "The other god is castrated and does not produce fruits," meaning that in Klipos there is no power of reproduction. It is explained in Kabbalah that the main power of reproduction comes from the brain of Daas (as the verse states "And Adam knew Chava") - when the understanding does not remain only in the brain of Chochma and Binah, but penetrates through Daas, emotions are born from this. Therefore, since the Klipos draw only from the brain of Chochma and Binah without Daas - they do not produce fruits. It is explained that if the Klipos had the power of reproduction, they would destroy the entire world. This can be seen tangibly in the animal soul within a person, whose root is from the Klipos: Although a person can understand matters of Elokus that are well-grasped in their Chochma and Binah, nevertheless, these things do not affect them to recognize and feel that the matter is indeed so, in a way that would give birth to love and fear in the heart. It should be noted that the lack of Daas in Klipos is only regarding Daas in Elokus, but Daas in worldly matters - they do not lack at all (and on the contrary, it is explained that the main sin of the Tree of Knowledge is negative Daas - "self-awareness" - which is the root that gives place for evil). As we see tangibly that regarding the very existence of worldly matters, even the intellect of the animal soul has recognition and feeling, but regarding the Divine force in the world and matters above intellect - although these too are seen and understood by human intellect, there is no recognition and feeling of them.
