Listener question: what is driving behaviour?

Listener question: Can you say more about when something is a pattern from the brain-body keeping an idea of self in place versus when it's a quality of unique beingness? It seems like anything can be either. In looking over patterns from a no-self accountability perspective, some patterns seem like they are preferences of this brain-body...sometimes keeping a self in place and sometimes not. For example this brain-body loves new experiences. On one hand, this body doesn't seem to find as much of a "problem" in boredom because "new" is always possible in the moment. On the other hand there can be a seeking of new experience as an escape from presence or that same moment that at times is easy to be in.thank you!
