There is a long and a short answer to that question
Pedro.

Are you referring to the "I" of the personality?
The short answer is : If so, my opinion is that once we individualize we
have latent intellect.  As this intellect develops the
sense of I becomes stronger as we record our
experiences through memory from childhood to 
adulthood - I do not believe that an entity perse
exists but only an accumulation of thoughts, ideas,
experiences (both good and bad) but that we imagine
the 'I" is a separate and unique self and has a consciousness
of its own.

Subject: Theos-World a simple question





Is the sense of a separate self natural to the human consciousness or is it acquired through the evolutionary process?
