Interpretation: Sefer Yetzirah sees the human body as a small world, a microcosm, in which the neck divides thinking from life-force, like a map of the universe.

### examples

- Man is a microcosm, as the neck separates rationality from vitality, so does diaphragm the vitality from the vegetativeness. (Sefer Yetzirah, Kalisch 1877) [tree →](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/R/rationality/#x1)
