My own self

When I observe an image then I know that I perceive that image, instantly I'm also conscious of my own self, I'm there and thus I learn that I am, except when I'm too eager, too concentrated, to do something very special, then my own self is switched off. My own self is kind of superposed onto my perception image, kind of intertwined, and it, the eye of my mind, can be switched off and on according to my will. My own self is born by my perceiving, even when I perceive just material things around me.

Where does our own self, Devine or not, come from? After lots of reasoning J.P. Sartre says: That's inexplicable! Ref. J.P. Sartre L'Être et le Néant.

My own self will absolutely never get anywhere else but remain where it is, it has to stay in its cave enclosure, and it will never be anything else but what it already is. Without it I would simply not exist!

Another denomination of "My own self" is "my soul".
