A simple thought experiment illustrates this:

I close my eyes and I imagine that there is nothing (everything is gone, including my body).
One "thing" is still there: the "I" who's imagining this.
As everything else is gone, there is only one "I", only one consciousness.
This "I" is my true identity.


PS. To avoid misunderstandings and comments like "yeah, but from my POV, only MY "I" is real", read this text as if you wrote that by yourself.
