Daily Zohar 4285
Hebrew translation:
237. וְאִם תֹּאמַר שֶׁאָנוּ פּוֹקְדִים בָּתֵּי הַקְּבָרוֹת בְּרֹאשׁ כָּל לַיְלָה – לֹא עַל הַגּוּף, אֶלָּא עַל הַנֶּפֶשׁ (שֶׁהוֹלֶכֶת מְעֻרְטֶלֶת). שֶׁהֲרֵי כָּל זְמַן שֶׁהַבָּשָׂר קַיָּם, הָרוּחַ פּוֹקֶדֶת עַל הַנֶּפֶשׁ, וְהַנֶּפֶשׁ פּוֹקֶדֶת עַל הַגּוּף. אֲבָל עַכְשָׁו פִּקְדוֹנֵנוּ הוּא לַנֶּפֶשׁ, שֶׁהִיא שׁוֹכֶכֶת, וְנִשְׁאֶרֶת שׁוֹכֶכֶת תּוֹךְ הָעֲצָמוֹת. וּמִשּׁוּם זֶה בְּרֹאשׁ כָּל לַיְלָה פִּקְדוֹן הָרוּחַ לַנֶּפֶשׁ, וְלֹא עַל הַבָּשָׂר.

Zohar Shelach Lecha
Continued from previous DZ
#236
As long as the soul was not dressed in its garments in the upper world, the soul visits her polluted body, which is desirable to the Sat-n. And after the soul is dressed in the precious garments of the upper world, all aspects of the evil inclination and its body are eliminated, together with the body’s memory.
#237
It raises a question about the soul that visits the cemetery at the beginning of every night. And if the body passes away from the world, One must ask why the souls visit the grave. He replies it is not about the body but about the soul. Because as long as the body’s flesh is present, the spirit haunts the soul, and the soul haunts the body. But now that the flesh of the body has passed from the world, our visit is to the soul level of Nefesh and not to the flesh.
