The Self That Watches the Self – Who Is That? Buddhism's Answer

The Self That Watches the Self – Who Is That? Buddhism's Answer

What if the one who’s watching your thoughts isn’t really “you”? This video explores how the Buddha saw the mind—not as a single self, but as layers of changing processes. We look at what happens during strong emotions like anger, how awareness itself can be just another illusion, and why even the “inner observer” might not be what we think it is. Drawing from Buddhist teachings and supported by modern science, this reflection gently questions the deep-rooted belief in a solid self and offers a fresh way to understand consciousness and peace.
