I am not educated in philosophy so forgive me if this is juvenile or misled.

This may be an Eastern perception of self to some degree, but I arrived at it after confusedly half-understanding two things from Deleuze. I'm interested in the importance of how individuals are perceived and recalled in the minds of all intertwined people in what may be called the living akashic record. Namely, I am curious about the rhizomatic threads of the self that metastasize in the world that may quickly form a larger reflection of an individual than that which is contained in an individual, even outside of the direct recollection of the living and into the material impacts of their being.

Considering that individuals themselves are scarcely conscious of their own actions and being, would the foreign developments be far more pertinent in examining the self and its identity? And, wouldn't the wider impact of one's own actions be a form of an agentless self that would undoubtedly live on far longer than ones own living person?

I know this almost certainly is covered in some way in Buddhism and other Eastern perspectives, through anattā and other likely names, but I am completely in the dark and would like resources.

Sorry for how long of a post this is, I just got pissed looking at the Western philosophy side of things that exalted the virtues of having ones head up their ass with "authentic" this and that. I don't want to entirely dismiss Existentialism, but I feel it is stretched to carry more water than it should.
