sense of self, n.All

Sense of self (n.) moves, ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠after the flip of consciousness, from the independent observer to everything observed: one is all that one knows.

Sense of self (n.) returns ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠after death as surely as nature abhors a vacuum; whether the gap is ten seconds or billions of years, in unconsciousness every time is one brief instant.
