I love the matrix theory ...only there isn't a 'real' world that you could get to if you unplug ..
Also ; You could always choose the other pill and believe what you want
Infinite is something imaginary as what we believe when we use the word 'infinite ' is based on an imagined idea of beyond
The super soul or many souls or whatever we call it is included in that concept of infinite including the individual 'i' me who is referring to it ....
So numbers increasing or decreasing doesn't matter to infinity
Purushasuktham states that what we know is not even a quarter of what is and what is , is 10 steps more than that
So any amount of parallels is only a point of reference to ones understanding with respect to Infinity
Now the one soul many soul discussion is based on local reality with respect to the body and the 'known' world and is infinitesimally small as far as the Infinite is concerned
Now super soul = Super Consciousness = Infinte
But that is imaginary as I cannot 'know ' the Infinite
But ...The Infinite has to include me the infinitesimally small jiva = soul else 'IT' (unfortunately ) cannot be Infinite
So i am part of the Infinite = my consciousness is part of the Infinite = I am the Infinite
