We spend our lives protecting an elusive self - but does the self
actually exist? Drawing on literature from Western philosophy,
neuroscience and Buddhism (interpreted), the author argues that
there is no self. The self - as unified owner and thinker of
thoughts - is an illusion created by two tiers. A tier of naturally
unified consciousness (notably absent in standard bundle-theory
accounts) merges with a tier of desire-driven thoughts and emotions
to yield the impression of a self. So while the self, if real,
would think up the thoughts, the thoughts, in reality, think up the
self.
