Finger and cuttings

Why if you cut off your finger does it not start to live?
That is, why doesn't the finger start its adventure in life and try to pursue its own interests?
That finger, if it is no longer attached to you, is it you? Or, is it someone other than you?
Or, is it simply nobody?
Because, a cutting is nothing more than a piece of a plant that is taken from you and put in a different pot.
And, wham, the miracle happens and a new plant is born.
Why doesn't the same thing happen with a finger?
Well, it has to do with specialization.
But, first of all, let's talk about the emergence of a Higher Identity.
A multicellular Being, like a human or a plant, is made up of cells.
These cells have ceased to be themselves in order to be the Higher Self, that is, the plant or the human.
They no longer possess Identity and, therefore, cannot recover it. Because they have totally transferred it to the Being of which they are a part.
Therefore, when a group of cells of the higher set are isolated from the rest, what happens?
Well, that finger that has separated, no longer possesses a Higher Identity.
And, as these cells cannot recover the Identity, they cannot separate and simply live.
They are condemned to be part of a whole.
That whole, losing its Identity, will create a new one.
And this is where the finger and the scion are totally different.
Because that new Identity will not be able to survive if it lacks the specialized components that allow it to live.
The finger does not have a stomach, brain, lungs, mouth, etc... that would allow it to survive.
Therefore, as soon as that new Identity is generated, the finger will die.
But, the scion does possess the specialized components necessary to live.
And, in fact, when that new Identity is born, it will survive little by little.
But the scion is not the plant it came from. It will have no associated memories, nor will it know that it was once that other plant.
It will have generated a new Identity and, for it, it will be as if it had just been born. As if it had started as a seed.
Specialization is vital for Higher Beings to be born and survive. It is what allows the development of the components that keep it alive.
And, that is what happens in every grouping. Ants, bees or humans, we are examples of groups with a lot of specialization.
Do you think it is casual? I don't.
I am convinced that this specialization is controlled by the Unconscious Intelligence, which comes from the totality.
