The Art of Being Yourself: The Paradoxical Path to the True Self :: Ken Wilson :: June 23-24 2007 :: http://www.annarborvineyard.org/ A Brief Philosophical Rabbit Trail: The Modern Debate About the Self's Existence From the earliest encounter with Jesus, the earliest disciples understood that in finding him, they were finding their truest self. If anyone wishes to come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. What profit is there for one to gain the whole world yet lose of forfeit himself? (Luke.9:23-25)
