Does the unimaginable God use the internal instruments of a Human medium when He incarnates?

[An online spiritual discussion was conducted on February 20, 2021, in which several devotees participated. Some of the questions of devotees answered by Swāmi are given below.]

[Śrī Anil asked: In the discourse “Why the Soul is not God” given on February 16, 2020, You have presented a systematic analysis to prove that the awareness of an ordinary human being is totally different from the unimaginable God. When God incarnates in human form, does He use the internal instruments (mental faculties) of the human medium?]

Swāmi replied: In the context of extraordinary or miraculous actions done by the Human Incarnation of God, it is immaterial whether the internal instruments of the human medium are used or not. The power behind those extraordinary actions is unimaginable. But when the Incarnation is performing ordinary activities of life, the soul uses its internal instruments as usual. In that case, God becomes inactive, remaining as just a witness.
