What is a Mind?

[Butters]

In other words: what is an incarnation? What is one person, or one mind or one soul exactly? 

All distinctions are imaginary. So why do we call one human an incarnation, and not a rock? Nothing seperates the human from the rock, yet we see a baby being born as a unique soul. 

Isn't that a paradox? 

Why can't I incarnate as one baby and one rock, in the same one incarnation? Why only as one baby? Why not as one baby and one old lady into one incarnation? I don't mean conjoined physically, I mean counting that as one incarnation. 

Is one bacteria an incarnation? Can I incarnate as one gut bacteria, or does that count towards one human? 

So I seem to have this human experience. Is there a gut bacteria experience? If so, that means my human body is having trillions of unique soul experiences at once. This gets weird when you think about it. 

Gets weirder if you assume time is imagined. Then I could incarnate in reverse time and weird shit like that. 

Leo talks a lot about human bias, human this and that. But wtf is a human?

I think you can incarnate as the relationship between a group of people.

Human is a special rock because it can see conciousness. A rock dosent think it exists.

If you die your conciousness could just sit in the floor in a room for eternity not even knowing anything is happening.

Until a loud noise scares you.

It goes beyond rocks. Imagine in your room there are a kazillion points of conciousness sitting there not even realizing they exist.

You could just as well say you incarnated as everything. It's a matter of framing.

If you take the literal sense of the word as being "in the flesh", then you have to ask the question, why have you incarnated as an entity that only believes their flesh is what they are?

The figment of something else's dream.  Human is the pattern that the dreamer has conjured.

There's no separation between rock and baby but there are plenty of differences (once the mind starts applying labels).  I don't know where souls fit into that equation.  There's no shortage of paradoxes however.
