Looking for the self

[Iconoclast]

Hi Jon,

Okey, fine. Let's explore something different.

Think about the person you were ten years ago.

When you look at your direct experience right now, what is actually present of that person?

Is the past itself here, or are there memories, images, and thoughts appearing now?

And what gives you the sense that you are the same person continuing through time?

Please take your time and explore this carefully.
