Can you truly know yourself?
You can question everything—except your own existence, said the late French philosopher René Descartes. The very act of questioning yourself confirms some form of existence. You think, therefore you exist. Case closed, right? During the Utrecht Night of Philosophy 2026, philosopher Colin Carret (UU) invites you to think beyond Descartes’ seemingly irrefutable claim and to question your concept of the ‘self’. He explores a theoretical interpretation of Buddhism and shows how the concept of ‘no-self’ can help you see yourself and the world from a radically different perspective.
