Leaving Home...

The ultimate purpose of the Soul's original separation from the God source is to know God completely - in all its dimensions, experiences, and expressions - and it learns more through this separation than it could if it never "left home." Just as the prodigal son could never have fully appreciated his father's home if he had remained there, the Soul leaves its home to travel far and wide and to know both the negative and the positive of all existence, because it is in the dynamic between the negative and the positive that there is life and consciousness.
