Consciousness and the Illusion of Self
You have roughly 60,000 thoughts a day, but how many do you actually choose?
If you can sit back and observe your mind, who is the one watching?
This week at Philosophy Café, we’re pulling back the curtain on the biggest mystery in human existence: the illusion of "you."
Thoughts, songs, and anxieties pop into your head uninvited, if you didn't ask for them, where did they come from?
If you can observe your own anger, stress, or distraction, who is the one doing the observing?
Is there a permanent "I" inside your head, or is the ego just a story your brain tells itself?
No lectures, dense texts, or philosophy degrees required.
Come as yourself. Whoever that turns out to be.
