If life-force’s only concern is to procreate then where is the influence on the force for there to be preferences or conditions as to who the life force procreates with? Ancestors? Buddi organ?
MiBeloved's Response:
Procreation is not the life-force’s primary concern but it is the subsidiary interest by necessity because of the fact that in this type of creation, everything is temporarily manifested. Forms here do not exist on their own. They are all propped up by conditions. If conditions are unfavorable, a particular thing deteriorates or breaks down and its form is de-constructed.
Kundalini is here to have a good time, or to put in Patanjali’s words to gain experience. However since it finds that the means of acquiring experience is temporary, it becomes interested in survival. By instinct it knows that it cannot continue existing in a particular form forever and so it engages in reproduction to procure for itself future forms, so that when the present form is caput, it can jump into one of its descendants and develop an embryo which will grow into a full blown body.
It does this repeatedly.
Remember that its real interest is having fun, or experiencing but it is intelligent enough to know that there will be a shift in the future such that it will lose the body, which is its chief means of experiencing this place, so that causes it to be paranoid about survival.
This paranoia makes it appear from our view point that survival is its main interest but actually enjoyment or procurement of experience is the real purpose of it.

This implies that some type of denial must be part of the process in order to indulge in "fun/experience" that is understood to be harmful at the same time..

MiBeloved's Response:
It is more that the person is distracted away from the reality or that the person is instinctively ignorant of or ignores the reality. Rarely is it a deliberate denial. The psyche is designed with these natural reality-ignoring tendencies so that no mental effort is required to thrive on illusion and short-term gratifications which are harmful in the long haul.
