No Self!

Science has recently discovered than our sense of self is an illusion. Apparently it is derived from a bunch of neurons in the brain.

A neuron (pron.: /?nj??r?n/ nyewr-on or pron.: /?n??r?n/ newr-on; also known as a neurone or nerve cell) is an electrically excitable cell that processes and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.

The wise ones through the ages have also been quoted saying things such as -

"The true value of a human being can be found in the degree to which he has attained liberation from the self."
? Albert Einstein

The Tao is empty
When utilised, it is not filled up
So deep! it seems to be the source of all things.
Tao De Ching

If there is no self. Then who are you?
