After gaining experience in this incarnation, the energy from the smaller bubble returns to the larger one, adding its "I am". That one goes to an even bigger one, etc, and the Energy of Everything database is updated 😅. It is a process of Development through Experience . God experiences through us, we are his receptors, senses, octopus tentacles, he sees and feels through his partial Manifestations .

Everything is Consciousness, everything has Consciousness (panpsychism, animism?), starting from the Source and ending with, I don't know: a quantum subatomic particle? Everything is certainly part of this Source. According to Wikipedia: "anima mundi (Latin), world soul (Ancient Greek: ψυχὴ κόσμου, psychḕ kósmou), or soul of the world (ψυχὴ τοῦ κόσμου, psychḕ toû kósmou) posits an intrinsic connection between all living beings, suggesting that the world is animated by a soul much like the human body. Rooted in ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, the idea holds that the world soul infuses the cosmos with life and intelligence".

The fact that I find consciousness in everything may result from the prehistoric need to personify incomprehensible phenomena and events, to give magical properties to inanimate matter. It may also be the result of the construction of my human self, trying to overcome the limitations of the bubble of physical senses or intellect. 

• shamanism, animism?

Up to and including the Middle Ages, the idea that the entire world was Spirit was commonplace. Later, people began to see everything mechanically, biologically, technically. The development of science and the industrial revolution perpetuated this model. Human civilization has departed from nature and only "primitive" peoples, lagging behind "progress", still understand the world differently. But haven't the times come when science (e.g. quantum physics) points to the existence of something more, something beyond, above?

"It's not me who has the soul, it's the soul that has me" (by Victor 😜).  

These are the models of souls and incarnations that I consider. 

Null model (biological):

0. There is no other life before or after earthly life

We are born, we live our biological life (or rather we exist), we reproduce our species Homo Non Sapiens, we die and nothing remains of us. Total "Zero"...

Consciousness is a function of the brain, a side effect, an internal process.

During (mental) journeys to various non-physical, energetic or astral worlds, or generally any world other than our physical one 😀, you can encounter and interact with various beings (consciousnesses). Here is a short guide "from non-physical life" that may prove useful. Although, when I read it myself, it seems to me that the guide is 100% true also in our present earthly life in relation to people...

1. If the creature needs to receive something from you in exchange for e.g. information:

This means that the creature is not much higher level than you and has limited resources. He may be someone trying to make something for himself. If he keeps you in ignorance, uncertainty and expects something from you, he most likely wants to use you without taking your good into account.

Of course, you can always conduct barter with equal benefits for both parties (win-win strategy), but this requires full transparency of intentions and actions.

BTW: Have you ever wondered why most "gods" wish to make "sacrifices"? Well, now you know what "deities" are and how to classify them. And religions still maintain it...

If you feel happy in life, Usually everything "succeeds" to you, regardless of whether you are in a passive or active relationship with the environment and events, In the I-world relationship: you are equal, you cooperate, you are in flow. You are the right one. Maybe your way of perceiving reality is like "the glass is half full" or "it's full" 😄.
Or: Your internal world map is synchronized with the external world and you are attuned to the reality around you. Good for you, lucky one! Everything is as it should be. You don't have to do anything, and what you do, you do well!

What if not:

1. If you feel unhappy in life, something is constantly missing, you don't fit in with your surroundings, you feel discomfort, you know that something is wrong, it shouldn't be like this, you are not "from here",
2. You think that you are not "successful", regardless of whether you are in a passive or active relationship with the environment and events,

Maybe your way of perceiving reality is "the glass is half empty" or "it's completely empty"...

Or:

Your internal world map is NOT in sync with the outside world and you are NOT in tune with the reality around you.

Just a teaser, a scratch on the surface of the topic: The Meaning of Life (wiki). I quote:

Contemporary concepts of the meaning of life:

Regardless of our values, we understand the meaning of life mainly as a relationship to:

1. Striving to perform or resign from various functions and roles in family and social life,
2. The ultimate goal of man's existence as a person and the ways to achieve it in accordance with his own beliefs,
3. The sense of undertaking or avoiding: suffering, inconvenience, difficulties and sacrifices (Epicureanism),
4. The sense of getting satisfaction and pleasure (Hedonism).

Ontology: the branch of philosophy dealing with being; deals with the structure of reality and the concepts of essence, existence, its ways, object and its properties, causality, time, space, possibility and necessity; (...) Ontology is sometimes identified with metaphysics, but some people separate these disciplines; 

Paul Gauguin: Where did we come from? Who we are? Where are we going?

I want to draw attention to the concepts of the ultimate goal, partial goals, path, paths, meaning as a whole and as a part.
