Again, if you think that then try measuring the speed of a car that is not moving. What we call "self" is merely the outcome of material processes, just like speed is an outcome of the motion of a car. They cannot be seperated.
If you could, then you could blow your brains out and still think without a brain. I would not recommend you try that.
Separate no. Distinct yes. You can slice up a brain anyway you like and you won't find a thought. Of course thoughts stop when the brain stops functioning. But that doesn't mean they are the same. The difference isn't all that subtle. Think again.
