The self (as an identity) has been described as the dialogue that goes on in our head, or at least the portion of it that deals with self-definition.
In other words, the self is just a thought, just an idea, with no lasting significance or reality.
Another view is that the self is consciousness, itself, the one thing that is relatively stable (while we are awake) while the contents of consciousness (thoughts, feelings, sensations) forever shift.
