As technology advances at a rapid pace, human beings may soon be able to fully replicate and transfer brain data. This means that our brains and consciousness can be completely copied onto new substrates, allowing us to extend our lives, or even achieve a form of “Immortality".

However, this prospect also raises a troubling question: when our brains and consciousness are fully transferred to a new substrate, are we still "ourselves"? What is the connection between the copy and the original? Can we still maintain our sense of self-identity and continuity?

This state of “No longer being you, yet still being you" is profoundly bewildering. We cannot be certain whether our current self will disappear completely during the transfer process, only to be replaced by a completely new “SELF”.  This uncertainty of identity is inevitably accompanied by a sense of panic and helplessness.

While we may not be able to fully confirm our state of existence, we can still maintain the deep-rooted core of our inner self. Even as external changes occur, the essence of our spirit, emotions, and personality traits may still persist, serving as the spiritual foundation that supports us as we move forward. In this uncertain era, perhaps we should focus more on our inner self, rather than being overly attached to external forms. Only when we can recognise and cherish the eternal, unchanging core within, can we find the anchor point for our self in the midst of this technological revolution, and continue our journey forward.
