QUESTION:
I would like to learn about the concept of shoresh haneshamos (soul roots). Can the Rav recommend any sefarim on this topic that I should learn so that I can know this part of Torah? I am aware that sefer Shaar HaGilgulim of the Arizal discusses the different soul roots of people. Is there anything else besides for this that I need to learn?
Also, I heard from the Rav that some souls are mainly rooted in the dimension of “place”, some souls are mainly rooted in the dimension of “time”, and other souls are mainly rooted in the dimension of “soul.” Where can I learn more about this?

ANSWER:
Besides for what you mentioned, also make sure to learn the sefer Shorshei HaNeshamos authored by the Rema m’Pano. To organize this information better, it is recommended to learn sefer Toras Nasan which organizes together all of the information of sefer Shorshei HaNeshamos. See also the commentary of Bnei Aharon to the sefer Shaar HaGilgulim.
As for the different soul roots that come from place, time, and soul, this is a concept that is barely explained in any of the works of our Sages in terms that apply to the soul.
