In this thread its been mentinoed that we come here with a mission a.k.a. purpose to fullfil. I am tring to figure out if the baby who died prematurely or the people who died in plan crash came here to die in that manner..??? I know that in subjective reality, my consciousness is creating a world based on my beleifs. I might have thought about plane crash about some point but I do know I havent thought about a young girl being raped. So how did it happen?
First off, let me qualify my post by saying that I'm not very familiar with subjective reality and my beliefs are based on a different world view (see above).

In my view, those people may indeed have come here to die in that manner in order to help someone else along to complete their mission. They may have had other things to do while there were here too, but I believe that may have been part of their reason for being.

When I was 11, my mother died. Looking back on it many years later, I realize that the development of some of my best traits can be traced directly back to that event. Despite the fact that it was very unpleasant at the time, I have a feeling that her early death was a part of her purpose.

We have free will to create our life and make decisions on a day to day basis. I beleive in that.
FYI, I believe the free will goes way beyond our day to day decisions.

But we are never really separate from our 'higher selves'. We may temporarily accept the belief that we are separate from god, but that doesn't make it so.

And since I believe that we choose to come here in the first place, then why should we feel a need to break free from identification with form? To me it feels as if rather than breaking free from form, our broad, general purpose is to evolve form and make it more godlike. And it's working.

Other than that, do I have a purpose to fullfil when I am identifying myself with form/objective reality???
Yes. Your purpose is to enjoy yourself, to experience wonderful things, to help others and to shine your light brightly.

Well, at least that's part of my purpose. You are free to choose/find your own purpose.
