God is a trinity, so is man.

Gen1:26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, ..."
Gen1:27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.

John 10:33-36 "We are not stoning you for any of these," replied the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God."
Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your Law, 'I have said you are gods'[Psalm 82:6]? If he called them 'gods,' to whom the word of God came—and the Scripture cannot be broken— what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, 'I am God's Son'?

The spirit is the person's mind with all it's knowledge, understanding, and it's set of decisions and values. Body and Soul are just machines that support the function of mind.

Looks like you didn't forget "body" and "soul" working to support "mind", but what about "spirit" and "heart"?

There are some Orthodox prayer groups who have up to 11 elements or dimensions.
