Who knows me, my-SELF better ? You or I ?

I know I am the organism but more like " I am the hand, the leg, the
tongue..." There's more to me than. Much more. In fact, quite like I
can live without a hand or leg, what I am can live without the
"organism."

Refer above. It is the organism that is asleep, not I. I only let it
sleep because it needs to. I, in fact, go nowhere. I only withdraw my
attention and awareness from issuing without and, instead turn it to
the mind. In it I create all things, without as much as moving my
little finger, so to say... the mountains, the glades, the trees,
flowers, women, great food, the hurt and throbbing pain, the tiger
ready to pounce on me, the sky travel, visits to the moon... All of
these I experience in my dream.

Then, I tire of even these and withdraw my attention and awareness
from the mind. People who are not trained in the art of negotiating
their way through the "inner" process they have nothing more to see or
be in respect of. They then rest identified with the vitality which
keeps the body alive... in the beating heart, the moving breath,
neurons at minimum activity, without anything in their awareness.

> As for the Unconscious I speak of it is Nature or God...

How can a source which raises consciousness, and matter that is
unconscious, be only unconscious. We never see unconscious rocks
create intelligent robots. The logical conclusion is to posit a
faculty that includes both unconsciousness and consciousness, as we
understand these two terms, even though we might not have any idea of
what such a faculty could be. That is our limitation... we can
recognise unconsciousness and consciousness, but not a third that
includes both.

> ... and I don't want your seal on my beliefs, for your reasoning is shallow and has no depth. You are confusing yourself to be something separate from and above the body but I can understand your stupidity because people across the ages have believed so without any solid ground and against all evidence to the contrary , I am happy you will live through the ages and make many people happy ,but I am satisfied that I will not ascribe to your stupidity and on my deathbed will be satisfied in knowing that I will reach the peaceful stage which people like you feign to attain while all the while desiring worldly pleasures for eons and eons.

There is to discuss in the rest of your outpourings above. You are
welcome to beliefs and opinions. You speak of an understanding which
is entirely absent in what you wrote. You could try again; I would
definitely add to the discussion when I find something I can
understand.
