But I have a question for you. What do you think is the reason for us as primordial living ideas to incarnate in such cognitively reduced and seemingly separated form of human existence (with physical and ethereal bodies)? Or in simple words, why do we incarnate into humans?
We can only understand this if the question is placed in a proper context (full elaboration in the Goff vs Carroll thread)
Speaking of incarnations, no doubt our resident Cleric may be too busy explicating his own formulations to comment, but by way of comparison some may be interested in FMW's explication in the context of Buddhism's Trikaya, appropriately enough in 3 Parts (best listened to at 1.5 X playback speed, as the recording on the old reel-to-reel audio tapes feels as if spoken in slow motion) ... Part I Part II Part III
Btw, there's a lot of other good FMW content on that same YT channel.
Here out of instinct or grace we seek
soulmates in these galleries of hieroglyph and glass,
where mutual longings and sufferings of love
are laid bare in transfigured exhibition of our hearts,
we who crave deep secrets and mysteries,
as elusive as the avatars of our dreams.

A possible storyline is that God is too busy to work out all the details and therefore plants a compelling curiosity in us (like was done with the children in the garden) and an integral diversity among us. Our job is a way-finding trial-and-error.
OK, it's just a story .
Be calm - Be clear - See the faults - See the suffering - Give your love
