Dense, but clear, bravo! It feels less like an argument and more like an unveiling. Not a proof of the self, but a redefinition of what it means to be oriented within experience.
Oh, that's fascinating, man. The idea that self is not a distinct entity but rather the orientation of consciousness is powerful. Quantum mechanics might offer a strange sort of parallel here, not as a literal explanation, but as a metaphor for understanding the self's elusive status. In quantum theory, particles don't have fixed properties until they're observed. They're basically probability waves, collapsed into being by the act of measurement. Similarly, the self is not a static entity but an emergent property of focused awareness. The "I" is neither the observer nor the observed but rather the act of observing itself. I prob wrote something that doesn't make sense. But your article is really cool :D

Since it doesn't say so here, and this article is getting new attention... I won the challenge with this piece.
