The strong soul dominates matter whereas the weakling will be dominated by matter. It is a bit like a process . The energies released by the stronger soul by conquering the bondage of matter increases vibrational frequency of the universe , which is a good thing. It helps other souls as well.

Energy/matter is what is known as Maya in Hinduism. In a positive sense, it is also known as shakti.
