Gurjit Singh
Gurjit Singh asked Abhijit Naskar:

What is human self according to you? It is eternal or transient? What is purpose behind working for self welfare?

Abhijit Naskar Self is an illusory by-product of the brain's response to the environment, with the purpose of survival of life. However, within the subjective realm of the human mind, due to higher brain capacities, the self is capable of creating its own illusory purpose, in an attempt to provide meaning in life.
