All experiences cannot be observed, yet experience as observed is continually changing to another experience.

Re: Philosophy Clan
The consistency of identity is found in replicable (circulating) actions and dually with the self acting as the point of change. The "I" always points to another phenomenon, with this pointing being the act of change. "I" is change in one respect and circularity (as the repetition of one phenomenon across multiple times/spaces) in another.

Re: Philosophy Clan
I certainly don't think it is. Although, I know you're not asking me.
Re: Philosophy Clan
I said "I".
You said "me".

If it strayed from the original source, yes.

A faked action is still an action, at most identity cannot be original thus fragmented. So to answer your question from another angle, yes identity can be fragmented and unoriginal.

So is identity an illusion?

Identity is the story we tell ourselves about who we are in relation to our circumstances.

Re: Philosophy Clan
A fair assessment, indeed.
As such the story can be fictional, but the story teller will always know this.
Re: Philosophy Clan
Yet the story is identified as itself. We are what we relate too.
