well yes, self is a concept, in psychology it is said that as we grow we develop a "self concept", a concept being an abstract thought or idea, beyond thoughts there is only beingness, when we speak of "losing ourselves" in music, or in the moment ect, we are experiencing the absence of the thought of self and becoming one with all that is, and losing the conceptual boundaries between self and the rest of what is being experienced. thank you!
