In what way do you feel this philosophy is ''headless''?

Sorry I just came home from work and I'm in an arguing mood, lol. I have conflicting thoughts because of it and the observer in me that doesn't exist says that I should log out and chill because I also have these negative thoughts that are generated as a result of the bad day I had. I know myself and I'm not quite me right now. It's not an independent '' I '', it's part of everything, together, the captain of the ship (brain). Haha. Ok, I'll shut up now * +

So if I lose the sense of self then would there be someone else or nobody?

Who is this ''i'' that would lose a sense of self? The ''i'' is exactly the thing that doesn't exist in the first place. (It's merely imputed by the aggregates of body and mind) * +

'' there's no watcher in conflict with his own thoughts'' are you sure? You've never had conflicting thoughts? Lol. I doubt that.

Conflicting thoughts often occur of course. But the ''i'' that thinks it is experiencing them is the thing that doesn't exist. * +

Then who is having the experience? Lol. What relates experience to non-experience? * +

That doesn't answer my question. * +

No one is having the experience. Experience without an experiencer. Thoughts without a thinker. * +
