Identification of the self.

If I were the body, then would I identify with the body? As a further explanation, let me say that we identify with a wooden door, when we see one. Because we identify with the wooden door, we identify the door. So, it is very obvious, that we identify with our physical bodies, as not being an extraneous physical body, but we identify our physical bodies as us. Why is this so? The answer to this question is obvious, but I am looking for the not so obvious answer. How can the senses make us identify with themselves? If the senses can be identified, then to which realm do the senses belong? Perhaps, we identify with the senses, not individually, but as a 'package'. Which means, that we sense as a combined whole of all sense perceptions. As a further explanation, it may be surmised, that if we lost the sense of touch, then we would loose all our other senses of perception. I seriously feel, that the soul does not perceive. This is because, the soul would not be able to perceive multiple perceptions. Perceptions are singular in their individual sensations. If the soul was a perception, then it would just feel one sensation. It would not have the ability to perceive perceptions perceived by different sense organs. What is the soul? We answer our questions with the help of perceptions. What if the soul cannot perceive? Can the soul then answer the question, "What is the soul?" If we can identify extraneous physical phenomena, including our physical bodies, then what we cannot describe, perhaps, is the self. If we cannot describe the self, then how do we identify the self, by explaining the previous sentence? This is all a matter of conjecture for myself, as I have not experienced the soul, as it is. If the soul is not associated with the body, then is the soul situated in the body? If the soul is not situated in the body, then is it situated in the physical world? If not in the physical world, then where is it situated? Remember, what we identify, is the physical world. How do we identify? Through our senses. If the soul is not situated in the physical world, then where is the physical world situated? In our senses? So in other words, we see the world, because we condition our senses to see the world. Have we conditioned ourselves to see the world? Apparently. Can it be possible, that just as we can transport ourselves, from one place on Earth to another, that we have transported ourselves to life? That though God exists, he has not transported us to life? If we cannot see God, at present, why is our soul associated with God, before we are alive? I mean, we are equally associated with God, as is the rest of creation, not less, nor more. We have discussed perception, but how does perception work? How do we associate emotion, with perception? Perhaps, without emotion, we would not perceive? But in other terms, emotion is perception. If emotion is perception, then how are we aware of our emotions and perceptions? Why cannot they exist, without we being aware of them? Is it because, though they are the same entity, we are aware of 'them' as two separate entities? Is this how perception works? "Perception through division"? Then, what causes conflict in perception? Is perception a perpetual conflict of the senses? Does perception occur, because it is a conflict of the senses?
