Something that's recently come up, we'll go into it more in depth in another show but just... I just want to mention it now, and that is that they've recently discovered, scientists have recently discovered that certain people don't have brains. Quite a few people don't have any brains. Their cranium is actually filled with spinal fluid and these people have very good grades in school and you know are straight A students in college, some of them, okay. Now these people know that they exist. They don't even have a brain, okay? But they exist.

So for those, of you who might still be in the illusion that the brain or some part of the brain is the self, that you are your brain or some part of your brain - the fact that there are people who exist and who know that they exist and don't have a brain, this should be enough to convince you that the brain is not the self. If, in other words, our example of the brain matter changing all the time does not convince you that you're not your brain or any part of the brain, then at least, this fact that there are selves, there are persons who exist, who are aware of their existence, who have intelligence, who don't have a brain - this should convince you that your idea is wrong.
