> Eastern philosophy says there is no “self” – science agrees I find that unlikely. Science doesn't agree about much about anything. The entire practice is a big exercise in disputing things. There's a few theories that nobody's been able to disprove. We call those "laws," and there's only a few of them. Just about everything else is up for dispute In general, articles about "what science says" about something are frustrating. At minimum, they could say, "these scientists agree." As an added bonus, it would be nice if, in general, the story and headlines actually matched what the research papers said as well. Sorry. I think I just got triggered. Too many bunk pop-science articles this month.
