The self can only become aware of itself as the self at the moment it encounters something other than itself. ... The self an d that which is not itself exist simultaneously, so to speak. Nishida Kitaro's famous line, "When the world becomes aware of itself , our self becomes aware. When our self becomes aware of itself, the world becomes aware," points to this point. ... At the very moment when the self encounters something other than itself, like a sudden spark of fire, the self and that which is not itself arise from something. ... The individual is this something that is born from the encounter between the self and that which is not itself. This something exists before the individual. ... For the time being, I would like to express this something as "betwe en people."
