HOW MEMORY CREATES YOU: THE IDENTITY OF ILLUSION

Описание: You think you know who you are. But what if everything you remember about yourself is being rewritten right now—without your permission?
Your identity isn’t what you think it is. Every memory you have is a reconstruction. Every time you remember your past, your brain edits it. The “you” that existed yesterday? Gone. The person you’ll be tomorrow? A stranger.
In this video, we explore the neuroscience and philosophy behind the identity illusion—how memory creates the false sense of a continuous self, why you’re not the same person you were this morning, and what happens when you realize there’s no fixed “you” to defend.
This isn’t just philosophy. This is awakening.
📍 What You’ll Discover:
• Why your memories are being rewritten every time you recall them
• The neuroscience of “reconsolidation” and what it means for identity
• How the Buddha, Derek Parfit, and modern psychology all point to the same truth
• The story of Sarah—a woman who lost her memory and discovered we all live in reconstructed realities
• Why “no-self” is the most freeing realization you’ll ever have
• How to let go of who you think you are and become who you’re meant to be
If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your past, questioned your identity, or wondered who you really are beneath all the stories—this video will change everything.
