Question: Why Soul First Gets a Material Body?

Gurudeva,
Namaste

I would like to ask you the following question: The connection and disconnection of the individual consciousness of all living entities from the physical body is known as birth and death. Why does it get connected to a physical body in the first place?

Yours in yoga

Answer: He Desires to Enjoy the Lord's Energy

When the pure living entity in the spiritual world misuses his minute independence by desiring to lord it over the energy of the Supreme Lord, he is given an opportunity to do so by being awarded a material body here in this material world.
