In the Tanya, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi stated that the ''nefesh ha'elokit'' is "literally a part of God above." This is supported by quoting the morning prayer "Elokai neshamah", which says "the soul You gave me is pure. ...You blew it into me," then quoting a phrase of the Zohar that "one who blows, blows from within him." This is taken to mean, "from His innermost." | In the Tanya, [[Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi]] stated that the ''nefesh ha'elokit'' is "literally a part of God above."
