My, how quickly identification with a separate self goes from theory to the isolation and requisite suffering of *being* a separate self.
And the harder one kicks/screams to escape the binding prison-ry of separate selfhood, the tighter its clutches, as though each kick/scream reinforces the false belief in being such a thing - no matter how easy it is to demonstrate such couldn't possibly be more than a mental/conceptual phenomenon.
As Curly Howard would likely assess and conclude, "Nyuck nyuck nyuck nyuck nyuck!"
