  Torah is the blueprint of the world

  And ALL of every branch of science is reverse engineering, figuring out how He created the world

  The Chida explains why the gemora says

  "Ger she'nishgar" a convert who converts. And explains that its different for a koton or a slave. He explains that such a nonjew, a potential convert,  already has that spark of a Jewish soul within and so the unusual language. But, the koton ALSO has the potential to become a good, an adult. The same reasoning and language should apply

  Someone asked...

  Rabbi, would you say that this is why sensitive neshamos feel pain in their very existence? Because they feel the potential, they feel & are sharply aware and in tune with the grandeur of the Infinit.

  We should have pity for the soul because it descended so low?

  On the contrary, it says in Pirke Avos that better one moment in this world doing a physical mitzvah than the entire next world!

  The intention of the heart is like a reality 3d printer. It prints out whatever is therein. One knows what is in ones heart by the words that flow out of it.

  Seychel and machshova are friends but separate things

  Seychel is the machinery that produces thoughts. Cause and effect.

  "We think in a language" and a soul is always thinking

  What language then, does a newborn that is pre-verbal but obviously has a neshoma,  think in? Ditto for a nonverbal handicapped person?

  We say yerida tzorich Aliya, namely every descent

  Is for the purpose of a later ascent. But, we also say that Shabbos is can aliyah of the world's, davenning is an aliyah, etc. Does motzei Shabbos abd after davenning then effect a yerida/descent? After these up and downs, literally, are we eventually higher? Are the ascents canceled out by descents, or the reverse? Is there an eventual "profit" i.e. net gain?

  "As long as the soul exists, the thoughts exist"

  But if the soul is eternal and inextingusishabke, the thoughts any person ever had are also eternal. 

  And the souls in the next world,  do they also have thoughts?

  Although many thoughts can be verbalized, many cannot be.  It could be a challenge to write them down or express them accurately. Is that the internal garment you are referring to in a person's thoughts? These thoughts stay inside more often than not.
