SELF
There are various interpretations of Self; for example: there is the Self of Ego, the Self called Soul, the Hindu Atman and a universal Self.
Whatever the theories – Self is the core and in a certain way the coordinate of every human being.
Possibly due to the difficulties of defining Self, the relationship with its beholder gets sometimes stressed – even so far, that latter doubts the presence of prior.
But Self is vital, as it knows the true nature and needs of its beholder and thus becomes particular important when turmoil and confusion threaten its physical & mental wellbeing.
There are many unification teachings, but most of them focus on a higher instead on a common Self, despite that we are selfish creatures and thus foremost interested in our own troubles, and who is more qualified to handle them but Self.

Yes waechter418, the Self are interpreted in various ways. There is one background to everything possible and that background is you, as your own self. But it is overlooked. The simplicity of being is there before any comments can be done, so staying with this "background" without imposing anything on it, is where real discovery is made.

There is only one Self, interpreted or not.

inner-self
outer-self
inner-dream-self
outer-dream-self
probable-selves
You can even name a whole-self.
Names are irrelevant, and unfortunately add to misunderstanding, but there is no other way at human level.

if you want to communicate with other humans, it would seem names are important. But that doesn't mean you always need names...
