Who am I? Am I my brain?

Posted on 2012/06/012015/11/24 by mendicott

Who am I? Am I my brain?

This one is a slippery slope; but, I’ll give it a go….  The so-called “Mind–body problem” [1] is a classical philosophical issue, and of course relates to the eternal issue of “Soul” [2].  I believe that it is widely accepted today that mind is an “emergent property” [3] of brain; whereas, self as identity is very likely illusory [4], albeit very useful (like one’s hand for instance)….  So, I guess in this sense, you are not you; therefore, your brain is also not you….  Who are you?  At the end of the day, you are everything….  ;^)
