what is " self" ?
self' is like our body nurtured by food,thoughts,inputs from surroundings. its a part of mind. actually speaking, the mind is fluidic that takes what ever shape it perceives it to be. when it thinks we call it as manas. when it recollects the past events we call it as memory. when it analyses and discriminates we call it as budhi or intelligence. when it identifies and immerses with the inputs/ senses/ organs we call it as "ego".
as the mind attaches with the sensual inputs ,we can denominate the ego as false identification. its not reality because, as the senses perceive very minute fraction of inputs from our surroundings,what ever inputs and information we receive is bits and pieces but not the whole. for example, the man can perceive the sound only in the range of 20 to 20000 hz and can see the energy that we called as visible spectrum in the very narrow range.
so,basically the operating system of the human hardware brain is called as mind. the basic rudimentary operating system when we born is just an amalgamation of instincts.
But the Real self' is nothing but the experience at individual level.
Actually loosing one's false self (other wise routinely called as mind ) by constant contemplation and meditation leads to realization that we are nothing but a wave of cosmic beingness.
your existence
your beingness
your feeling 'I Am' (I exist)
your awareness
your consciousness
your spirit.

"The Real Self is subtler even than space, since It has no name and cannot be described;
neither the mind nor the senses can reach It nor comprehend (perceive) It.
It is pure consciousness (Beingness, awareness, existence itself).
That Self is empty like space, but it is not nothingness, since It is consciousness.
