The soul incarnates by becoming karmically connected with the parents and choosing their sperm and egg. Overseeing the biomolecular construction of a new body, consciousness creates an embryological bloom that starts as a signal-celled zygote. Trillions of cells work harmoniously, miraculously unfolding into various systems of the body that, barring damaging influences, will be nearly perfect. This is a fame of radical transformation for the incarnation being, as well as for the new parents. This painting was done while Allyson was pregnant with our daughter, Zena Lotus Grey.
