What does it mean God broke? God Himself didn't break, but our connection with Him broke.
Our internal qualities changed from the quality of bestowal/love of others/altruism and we fell into the quality of selfishness. Now we think only of ourselves, with no regard for others.
As such we became separated from God in quality because God is the quality of love (seeking to benefit others) and we're immersed in the quality of selfishness (seeking to benefit ourselves).
There's a famous English nursery rhyme:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the King's horses and all the King's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again.
Our connection with God broke, and it's our job to fix it. As the nursery rhyme suggests, people have been trying to fix it for a long time and haven't been successful.
Well, times have changed.
Now we can finally fix our broken connection with God by exiting the quality of selfishness and returning to the quality of bestowal. We have to seek to benefit others instead of ourselves.
When our quality becomes similar to God's quality, we'll be reunited with Him. We'll return to God in quality and fix the broken connection.
We'll put Humpty back together again and the nursery rhyme will be:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the King's horses and all the King's men
Lovingly put Humpty together again.
