Ever since a baby is born and seeks its mother's breast intuitively, life is nothing but seeking — but this is done instinctively, automatically, without the need of thoughts. Hence the question arises – Who is the seeker? Am I in control of my seeking? If seeking is a natural process belonging to nature, could we then say that maybe “I think that I am the seeker, but the truth is that I am not the seeker” - Then, if I am not the Seeker, who is? The answer could be that in reality there is no seeker as such, but instead an impulsive, in-built need to seek something that has been programmed within me. Something within the ego (me) pushes my thought and emotional processes to seek whatever is written in the programming of my Psyche – However, I think that I want to seek something, when in reality it is the impulse within that pushes me to act.
An analogy could be helpful here: if we take a computer for example, we know that for it to function it needs to have inbuilt special computer programs. In the same manner, we have as human being an innate, engrained program with which we are born and which I have previously called our natural "blue print" or the "Perfect Model". To make it sound more mystical and nearer to the truth, I have always called this programming with the name of - the Psyche. Each human being has of course a Psyche, which has been programmed before incarnation. Therefore the seeking in human beings depends on the programming, over which, we as human beings have no control. Let us take some examples. There are some people who consider themselves seekers of money. Some seek fame. Some seek power. And some seek among other things to known themselves and to know God. This kind of seeking, let's call it spiritual seeking, or seeking Absolute Being or God, and seeking freedom from the ego — what we call it is immaterial — is happening to everyone through the impulses coming from their Psyche, which bridges and links the Unlimited aspect of Consciousness which is Absolute and Infinite to its “shadow” or limited and subjective aspect that is anchored and engrained in every human being, because each person’s Psyche has been programmed before birth for a certain kind of seeking to happen.

In ancient 'alchemy' there is an adage, it states, "All who co-operate with nature are turned into gold".
The implication of the adage is that the natural tendency of the universe is to guide us to spiritual fulfillment. Restated, the adage implies that the unseen forces in the universe are loving and designed to unfold and expand us.
The culprit in this subtle unfolding is the renegade ego which often opposes the natural flow of events because of fear or the ego's insistence upon having its ridiculous preferences.
The unfolding process is significantly empowered when (finally) the ego willingly merges with the unfolding process. When the ego merges there is a type-of energetic introduced which is similar to Ulysses being lashed to the mast and, as a result, all avenues of escape are closed.
I love your "blue-print" analogy. To surrender to the seeking-process is to be shaped by God and ultimately to be transformed into an utterly remarkable and individualized expression of the ineffable .
I have found that everything that I love(ed) about myself was (is) expressions of my inner spirit and as my ego eroded even more incredible gifts flowed to me and through me.
The greatest gift ? ...... an awareness of eternal life combined with the ability to "ask in-order to receive". The trick, in my opinion, is to discover that human is the box which we need to think-outside of.
Why ? Because human desires keep us tethered to (rebirth) a human form and keep us on the wheel of death and rebirth. As you imply, the ecstasy inherent within the unfolding process transcends any and all sense-based pleasures. As such, human sense-based desires are problematic diversions when the only real viable choice is the will of God.
The only problematic issue that I have with this (all above) is that much of our spiritual literature and teachings are Piscean-based and are linked with suffering and all of the insanity of the Piscean Age.
Dying in a soap-opera is the metaphor.
My opinion is that human is a black-hole for the soul.
I have constructed a metaphorical work-in-progress regarding this seeking-stuff.
The story is, a highly advanced extraterrestrial civilization devised the ability to send archaeologists to earth and the archaeologists (2 of them, in my story) would actually be born as human beings and experience the process of being human. Then the archaeologists would awaken to their true nature (highly advanced non-corporeal beings with great power) and have to decompile all remaining human-residue in order to facilitate their return to their true home.
