    The document discusses different philosophers' views on the definition of self: 1) Socrates viewed the self as an immortal soul that exists over time, with reality being dualistic between the physical and ideal realms. 2) Plato introduced the idea that the self has three parts - reason, physical appetite, and spirit/passion. Individuals must understand the essence of the self. 3) Plotinus, Augustine, and Descartes viewed the self as distinct from the body, whether a rational soul, thinking thing, or immortal soul that exists over time.
