Currently i do not have all the answers.
But i can give you that what i have.
I'm going to use the Sun as a parable.
The Sun is currently known as a sphere.
The Sun is sending beams of light all around itself. That is how it expands.
To the human eye, one light beams appears as a line, but that is because the light is moving too fast for human eye.
If you could capture the tip of a light beam, you would see a Sphere as well.
This miniature sphere is radiating light all around itself, just like the sun does.
If you could slow down and capture the radiation of this small light ball, you could see the same thing that you see from the sun and its light beam.
And this goes on and on ...
For a light beam, to be visible to the human eye, there has to be a constant stream of new light particles.
You can say that there are two parts to the Sun. One that is the Source, and one that is called the expansion.
The Source is immovable, the expansion part (or the extension of the source) is moving.
Now comes something that is not so easy to get in the material viewpoint:
The source and its extension are not "Separate".
Therefore everything is the Sun (or God when you switch the parable).
Explained in the way of thinking, this means that it is the Source that thinks and acts.
There is only the Sun and nothing else exists. The darkness is only a Space in which the Sun has not been expanded yet.
When a Sunbeam goes out of Sun, it ask the source for reinforcement, so that it can move.
The source is, then, sending another particle out, and this particle, when it moves, asks for more.
That is how a sunbeam is formed.
This is all simple. There is no complexity in it at all.
The complexity arises, when a human mind tries to explain all that, what is needed to make this work in material viewpoint only.
It is then when a complicated story starts to form.
You see, i have explained how one beam of light is formed. And this is all the same for all of them.
If you understand that the Sun is sending the light in all direction, the human mind may start to count and to see that there are 10.000.000.000.000 (and more) light beams.
If you look on the numbers, it only seems to be complex. If you know how one is made, you know it all.
As i have explained, a particle of the sun-beam is shining, just like the Sun, in all direction.
I want to use the term "Generation" to point where the "Adam" is, in this parable.
All of the first particles that come out of the sun is the 1st generation.
The 2nd generation is the radiation of the 1st gen.
The 3rd generation is the radiation of the 2nd.
Adam (in my viewpoint) was created in the 3rd generation. (it could be that it is the 2nd gen, but for this explanation it does not matter)
The "eve" is a creation of "adam", and was created in darkness.
The whole picture seems to be going from "Higher" to "Lower", and from "Faster" to "Slower".
The (S)lower it goes, there is more chance that a "Darkness" can be seen.
Darkness, as explained earlier, is only an empty, unoccupied space.
But in human understanding, darkness has double meaning.
Dark, for the light would mean it's death. Humans call it bad, sin, devil, death ...
When you say:
Quote:
Why did ... extended into a lesser knowing, and created my point of view, which knows less

If you have read and understood what i wrote above the quote, then the explanation is simple.
The knowledge has to be passed from one generation to the next. (It is the same on earth ...)
The lower it goes the slower the learning process.
When Adam created this universe (i call it the eve), he did not had all the knowledge which God has. (The knowledge was and still is in the process of transmitting)
Darkness is a Space. And only in Space can time exist. If you understand time as a delay, then you may understand why everything disappears here.
In this space all the stars were created, then the sun, then the earth, then humans, animals, insects and the lower lifeforms, atoms etc etc etc. (As above, so below. From higher to lower this time)
As long as Adam had the connection to God, he was in paradise, and so was the eve.
Then something happened. Something that normally should not happen.
I can only explain it like this: Adam got confused, and suddenly the Eve became his source.
It is easier to explain it in generations. The light, which is coming from adam, created the eve.
If adam is the 3rd generation, the eve would be the 4th.
Adam must have confused his own light as the source, and is now getting the 'strenght' or the "Light" or "Life" from this.
What is happening is basically a loop, where the 3rd generation is creating the 4th generation, but at almost the same time it is drawing the power to create from it.
That is the "Recycling".
The bible says "And a deep sleep fell upon adam". Humans usually sleep during the night time.
Night means the absence of light.
For adam, it means that he had horrific dreams. The human history can approve this.
The problem with humans is, that the learning is slow. And many do not want to learn.
You have to know that humans all together are Adam. Adam is dreaming each one of us.
But individually they/we do not know it.
I'll stop here, because this text getting a bit too long, and it is easy to get derailed.
