How far can you take this?

The higher identity.
So'ham.
Detect every identification.
I am this.
I am this other.
Now I am this.The unending cycle.
Calmly focus on your devotional service.
Learn to recognize the flavor of limited identification, combining the inner verbal or non-verbal idea that something is you, mixed with the emotion also of being that limited thing. Detect this pattern, see it, drop it. Obtain the bliss of freeedom which is diagnostic of success.
Insert the oyster knife of recognizing that I have identified with something limited; separate yourself from that; shuck it off, the pearl is within.
Allow the awareness above (in the head) to arise.
Allow the enmeshed identities to subside.
Become aware of the pure I awareness within, still, witnessing calmly, wise pure knowing, focussing above. Perhaps the straight posture clicks into place, revealing stillness, an encompassing consciousness, unbound, non-reactive.
Identify with That. Let your will to identify, identify with that. So'ham, so'ham. It is the self arising which you saw in darshan of the shiva lingam in Janakpur, the permanent one, Shiva.
