Thanks for the response.
I guess the only thing in your post that is unclear to me is the apparent mismatch between the concept of a soul being eternal and a soul beginning its journey without knowledge. One implies a lack of a beginning while the other implies a beginning. From what I gather, to bridge these concepts, you believe in a sort of infinite pool of souls, eternal and therefore uncreated, that exist without action and become active at a certain point to begin their journey. Is this an accurate statement of what you said? Are new souls drawn from this pool into the material universe to continually replace souls that escape the material universe to reach Moksha?
Yeh, that's basically it. You're good at this!
I have seen the example of a drama before when discussing this and it is an interesting concept to me. Would you say that Moksha is sort of like individual actors retiring from the drama while the drama itself continues?

That certainly seems like a valid metaphor. We strive for God Realisation when we're sick of the drama.
