What is the difference between attaining human incarnation and attaining energetic incarnation?

[Śrī Anil asked: Pādanamaskāraṃ Swāmi, in Your knowledge, You mentioned about a Gopika (Candralekhā) who died instantly standing at the door step pulled simultaneously by both devotion to Kṛṣṇa and bond to family. She attained the energetic incarnation of God (Videhamukti) and could not attain the human incarnation of God, Kṛṣṇa (Jīvanmukti). What is the difference between these two cases of attaining human incarnation and attaining energetic incarnation? Even other Gopikas, after death, attained Goloka, which is also the abode of energetic incarnation only. Please clarify.]

Swāmi Replied:- Mukti or Salvation means both Jīvanmukti (liberation from worldly bonds while alive on earth due to bond with contemporary human incarnation) and Videhamukti (the liberated soul in energetic body reaching energetic incarnation in the upper world after death). Candralekhā could not get the liberation on earth due to incomplete liberation from worldly bonds on earth and hence, could not go to the upper world as fully liberated soul to reach the energetic incarnation, but, due to the simultaneous emotional pain and emotional joy she was liberated from all her past sins and past merits and reached the energetic incarnation in the upper world. However, she could not liberate her soul from the fear of her worldly bonds for the sake of God and was born on the earth again because of the controlling influence of the worldly bonds. Fear related to worldly bonds is neither merit nor sin, but, any feeling related to worldly bonds strongly will bring back the soul to this earth. At the same time, the soul is fully liberated and hence, participates in the service of God.
