In this passage, q'uo describes the difference between time/space and space/time in regards to experience and service. One particular part that struck me was how they described the beginning of the incarnative experience and it kinda blew my mind.

Now, during that period that you may call your “inter-incarnational” period, as we have said, there is an orientation or a tilt within the beingness of the evolving entity back towards its incarnational experiences in space/time, so there is still the space/time focus and a kind of memory which it would beggar our ability to describe because it is significantly different from the more linear memory which you now enjoy, and yet it does form a kind of linkage with a life trajectory spanning your incarnational experiences in such a way as to give an unique identity for each developing soul. In this condition of the time/space portion of your space/time continuum, there is not the veil and so one is much more directly conscious of the qualities of the beingness one exudes and there is awareness of the beingness of others with whom one has established over the course of many life experiences deep resonance in relationship, and the qualities of these around one too are readily knowable.
It happens, however, that the qualities within the beingness of those in the time/space portion are not always precisely what are desired by these developing beings, either individually or as a group. It is not so easy in time/space to undertake qualitative transformations of a deep and fundamental nature and so it happens that what appears to the time/space invested individual as a kind of sleep is sought and in this sleep there is a passage to what you would call the space/time portion of experience and this is the beginning of another incarnative experience which you might then liken to a dream being dreamed by one in time/space.
So not only is it an illusion as we all have been told, but it's more of a dream to our whole Self within the time/space nexus. This way of thinking about it really opens my mind to a new way of lookin at this illusion.
