This might be helpful for your discussion, “The straightest way to spiritual evolution and advanced states of consciousness is via the field of consciousness itself, which is the nonlinear Radiance of Divine Energy that is the substrate of all that exists. The condition of Enlightenment is the state of pure Radiance that shines forth as the Presence/Self. The Self is the essence of spiritual existence and Reality as subjectively Known by virtue of effulgent Identity. The Radiance and Effulgence of the nonlinear Self are autonomous, consequent to relinquishment of the linear/ego positionalities and emotions that preclude their realization. The phenomenon of Enlightenment is thus analogous to the shining forth of the sun when the clouds have been removed. …The personal self, therefore, does not become enlightened but instead falls away and is replaced by the previously obscured Reality of the Self as the Radiance of God Immanent. This is in contrast to linear concepts and beliefs about God as being primarily only transcendent and therefore ‘elsewhere’ in time and location.” -Discovery of the Presence of God, -David R Hawkins, 2006

That's the million-dollar question. As memories belong to our lower self they are localised to each individual brain/body. This is your reasoned response to the question about memories and identity? They are just inhabitants of our "lower self"? This just iterates your previous schizoid claim ... a sort of "My lower self did it".
