The workshops include of a prior presentation of the topic by myself on YouTube. The meeting itself consists of a brief review of the topic followed by questions and discussion. The weekly topic is posted a week before the event, together with a suggested reading from my work The Pursuit of Value, available through Amazon Books or myself. Transcripts of the Youtube presentation are available by email.
THIS WEEK: Most of us identify ourselves by means of our names, family, gender, age, ethnicity, culture and our personal history. But we are aware that something else also constitutes our identity. Barry Dainton contrasts ‘the phenomenal self’ (of our consciousness) with ‘the psychological self’ (of our minds) which consists of all our thoughts, memories and feelings. After considering what we are, we must also think about who we are. Can this question be answered in terms of facts about our lives, or must it be answered in terms of our values, what we identify with and what we aspire to?
