A philosophical story which was written to be questioned, posing an alternative view of existence, one which differs from that of most scientific and theological ideologies, you've just got to have a point of view.
It's not rocket science, it's the...
It can help to think of the entity as an Infinity Pool, with no visible edges and the individual souls as droplets, all unique, although like water droplets able to spontaneously coalesce as they touch.
Conversely, imagine the contents of the Infinity Pool vaporising like water and dissipating into the universe, where just a single cupful can become billions of discrete molecules, atoms, or even particles, each the same, but a different lifeforce.
At this point, with a bit of outside the box thinking it is possible to imagine each newly formed lifeforce as sperm, devoid of memory.
From here it is not a quantum leap to consider them entering the womb at conception to coalesce with an embryo as it's forming at the unification of a father's chromosomes and a mother's egg, a needy biological organism (biological machine) awaiting a boost of sentient energy, something without which it would never know life.
