For example, you can't just "have children," you have to dedicate a good chunk of self, not to yourself, but to the "project." For a soul alone in the desert, this may be more apparent. The verbiage in that quote--the putative subject of this thread--doesn't carry that depth for me. That's my feeling about it. That's all.
I guess that for wanderers at least, coming down here is pretty much that, whatever one does. The whole incarnation being such a dedicated endeavor.
Oh, I expect a wanderer could be just as lazy or indifferent to knowing self as the Creatrix as anybody else. Why not? A wanderer might have an inherently underlying higher vibration or desire to serve, but they can avoid doing the hard work of knowing the self deeply as anyone else, right? Do they get a pat on the back just because they wandered over this way for awhile? I dunno. It kind of sounds like an ego trip to me to say, "Hey, I'm a wanderer, so I don't need to slowly strip away the parts of me that are not the Creatrix so that I may be of deeper service to All." Of course, that may not be be exactly what you're saying...?
