There is no ''i'' no independently existing ''i''. Can a house exist without bricks ? Can a car exist without wheels,engine,boot,doors etc? An ''i'' does exist but not an independently existing ''i''. The concept of an ''i exists but it exists only as that..a concept.

A concept can't observe itself as concept if there's not an observer behind it. I'm not just merely a thinker, or my body. There's a driver in a bus you know. * +

Oh no, not again... that's not what I'm talking about when I'm talking about the '' i'', you know it. In quantum terms I don't know if there's anything that survives, I don't know if life is cell based only.
But that's another subject of discussion, I'm just stating that the I exists and it's a lot more than thoughts and an illusion created by the brain to deceive theres a thinker. Youre core isn't made out of thoughts only. You deny there's an observer, experiencer but it's clear there is one. Read earlier replies * +

No not quite,that would be an oxymoron.

No its not because you are claiming the i is just thought * +

The ''i'' like all phenomena is dependently originated..would you agree with that? If not then tell me where the ''i'' comes from? Has it always existed? It must either be dependently originated or be eternally existing. There is no third option. * +
