The whole mechanism of harvest, and placing the veil in order for learning (polarizing) to occur "more efficiently" doesn't really square (in my mind) with free will and being outside the construct of linear time. I'm not sure why evolution of consciousness needs "pushing" in this way. Maybe it has something to do with stasis or inertia, and a system that doesn't evolve (quickly enough) becomes toxic.
Any thoughts?
i think the veil's purpose is removing the knowing that we're all one so it's even possible to have these types of experiences in the first place. you can't have the experience of choosing not to selfish unless the option of being selfish is actually attractive on some level. if you know you're all one, then being selfish wouldn't make any sense and wouldn't be a real option, there'd be no opportunity for choice. imagine if everyone was their ideal higher self, totally compassionate and wise and all of that, there'd be no duality of good and bad actions.
Understood.
But it seems to me that in creating the experience for free will, some of free will has been usurped. Something else made the decision for the veil. If entities were left to themselves without veiling, so what if they don't choose selfish things because they know they are one with all? I'm not saying one way or the other is good or bad. Just saying that there is a paradox here.
