There is only an apparent identity, a highly functional illusion. Identity is the union of subject and object, as the biological subject experiences the object world. In other words, identity is an emergent property of the subject's consciousness. Life forms come into this world anonymously, with an environmental context awaiting them. Life is that which experiences its environment context, its object world. The object world is only apparent to the subject, for the subject does not experience the reality that is out there, what it does experience is how what is out there alters/affects the subject's standing biology. In this way, the apparent reality is a biological readout of the energies surrounding the subject's consciousness. One's thoughts, feelings, and beliefs about the subject's experiences relative to its object world are then considered one's identity. The constitution of the subject has been molded into a world perspective that defines the subject, this is said to be one's identity. Who is alive, an anonymous constitution conditioned by the world as an object.

To say that we are only biology resonates with Physicalism.

U.G. Krishnamurti also said humans are only biology.
He was called the Gangster Guru.
He is quite entertaining.
