Marsha:
A rhetorical device you say?   Or maybe an understanding that "This Cartesian 'Me,' this autonomous little homunculus who sits behind our eyeballs looking out through them in order to pass judgment on the affairs of the world, is just completely ridiculous."   Rhetoric or wisdom?  After all your reading of RMP's works, care to tell us for certain?
