Past and current life incarnations

[Stranger]

Though I am not sure I would call it a "separate" entity. It to my awareness is the unifying portion of creation "the entity" that belongs to all and/or all belong to. Most m/b/s complexes just have no awareness, or ability to embody/connect to this part of self because they are so caught in the play of separation.

Well, nothing in Creation is actually independent, is it? 

And of course, being a foundational part of the Universe, it is a part of ourselves and a part of our environment.

From its point of view, it is always and ever one with each of us.  From our point of view and in our experience, however, we can be "in tune" with it - our "out of tune" with it - to various extents, thanks to free will.

Also, it is independent in the same sense that you are independent - in the sense of being a distinct personality, if you will - a separate face of the Creator.
