I've tried making that claim here before, but the response if I recall was a repetition of the Cartesian dictum, and I didn't pursue it. If the self does not and/or never has existed in the first place, then there is no point in mourning its loss, because it quite literally doesn't "go anywhere." Still, without having that deep conviction, not sure how it offers succor. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
