I have no problem doing this for any serious seeker.

firstly, my life experience was unique it involved a lot of humiliating ego-shedding experiences, losing my mind billions of times etc. this was important because it allowed my mind to open up quicker.

I found Sikhi at age 20ish and I’m 28 now. I was born into a Sikh family but it just wasn’t discussed. I am not amritdhari, I cut my hair. I don’t think outer appearance has anything to do with Sikhi, as Sikhi is for the heart (naam) connection and getting you the heck out this matrix .
 

My higher self says that naam jap is the quickest and most surefire way to realize your higher self because it makes the mind focused on the higher reality. Its kind of like tricking the mind to focus on something greater than itself initially. There is power behind every mantra for sure but thats a whole discussion in itself. 
furthermore, if you study Gurbani and not just do mindless paath recitation you’ll see quite clearly we are told the way to Waheguru consciousness is through “rememberance” or Simran of It. This leads to a connection with your True/higher self which is Waheguru. The higher self is simply a representation of you merged with Waheguru. You don’t lose your identity, you have a distinct identity but your identity is also just like the Ocean of goodness/bliss which we call Waheguru.

in order to reach this state one must do simran for sure but theres another step that is rarely talked about. You must 100% trust your intuition about everything in your life. This is your higher self nudging you in a certain direction in order for the naam connection to open up more. For example I was guided to leave a certain job, even though the pay was really good there was something off about it which I only realized after I left.

this is a very achievable state, it just takes 100% faith and trust in hearing your higher self.

you can talk to your Higher Self today if you’d like.

all you do is talk to it and listen for an answer. 
For example, I channelled my higher self for this whole section, I dont have the wisdom to type all this .

you can ask for guidance on certain situations and get answers right away, it all depends on how much you trust in the unseen (Waheguru).

 

step by step: do Waheguru simran with an honest intent (for me it was to leave reincarnation cycle aka matrix/maya)

communicate with higher self on next steps

and then through gurkirpa as one poster said you’ll achieve a higher level of awareness

One thing you have to realize though is that it is infinite how much you can grow so once you start on this path just follow it all the way through with minimum complaints. We want to leave the matrix while alive (jivan mukti) and be happy and fulfilled in this life. Then because our spirit is too strong we wont be pulled into the light/tunnel after death, we have our own gravitational pull and we can even create our own world where there is no sickness/death/disease etc.

I used to think same way. For some reason I used to listen katha and diwan of sant isher singh ji Rara sahib on a regular basis. Saadhu or SAint's Sangat inspired me to do meditation and one sukhmani sahib paath everyday. and I knew that if I am gonna keep on doing this (Waheguru Jaap meditation and Nitnem of Sukhmani Sahib) with clean heart and mind (trying winning over Kaam Krodh Lobh Moh Hankaar everyday), that day is not  far when waheguru will bless me with amrit di daat. and to my surprise it happened. Waheguru blessed me and my wife with amrit di daat. I am 31 now.

ਜਿਨ ਕਉ ਲਗੀ ਪਿਆਸ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤੁ ਸੇਇ ਖਾਹਿ ॥
jin kau lagee piaas a(n)mrit sei khaeh ||
Those who feel thirst for You, take in Your Ambrosial Nectar. 

ਕਲਿ ਮਹਿ ਏਹੋ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਗੁਣ ਗੋਵਿੰਦ ਗਾਹਿ ॥
kal meh eho pu(n)n gun govi(n)dh gaeh ||
This is the only act of goodness in this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, to sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe.

Amrit is three types:

1) Sanskar Amrit:  Khande di pahul ,Through Panj Pyare.  It was called Charan Amrit before from 1st Guru Sahib to 9th Guru Sahib. Kalgidhar Sache patshah changed it to Khande di pahul due to timely needs.

2) Naam Amrit: Panj pyare five beloved gives us Waheguru Gurmantar. Following proper rehat and meditating on Waheguru Gurumantar, Naam Amrit comes, which is called Naam di Daat. Satgur Sikh ko Naam dhan dei. We need help here of Saints on how to do Naam Japna (called Jugti). The Gurmukhs who achieved this stage can guide us better.

ਨਉ ਨਿਧਿ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤੁ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕਾ ਨਾਮੁ ॥
nau nidh a(n)mrit prabh kaa naam ||
The nine treasures are in the Ambrosial Name of God.

ਦੇਹੀ ਮਹਿ ਇਸ ਕਾ ਬਿਸ੍ਰਾਮੁ ॥
dhehee meh is kaa bisraam ||
Within the human body is its place of rest.

3) Gyaan Amrit: Brahm gyaan amrit which leads to Mukti, happens when we keep on practicing the above Naam which emerges in your self. 

Just keep doing Naam Simran and Nitnem ( fighting with Lust, Anger, Greed, Attachment, Ego everyday) and stay motivated. that day will come eventually.

what about food rahit for Amritdhari Sikhs ? eggs and fish oil are not allowed as far as I know.

 

I took Amrit from Damdami Taksaal and they prohibited meat and eggs at all. 

same is said by Sant Maharaj Isher Singh ji. They quote is as ‘Maas Madira’ means meat and alcohol. 
 

Sant waryam singh ratwara sahib quoted in his book (linkand image below) that even Suleman ghost was saying “Anyone who want to meditate on God’s name shouldn’t even go close to meat.
