1. St.

Augustine’s sense of self is his relation to God, both in his recognition of God’s love and his
response to it—achieved through self-presentation, then self-realization. St. Augustine believed one
could not achieve inner peace without finding God’s love.
Rene Descartes the self can be correctly considered as either a mind or a human being, and that the
self’s properties vary accordingly. For example, the self is simple considered as a mind, whereas the self is
composite considered as a human being.
John Locke considered personal identity (or the self) to be founded on consciousness and not on
the substance of either the soul or the body.
Hume suggests that the self is just a bundle of perceptions, like links in a chain. To look for a
unifying self beyond those perceptions is like looking for a chain apart from the links that
constitute it.
According to Immanuel Kant, we all have an inner and an outer self which together form our
consciousness. The inner self is comprised of our psychological state and our rational intellect.
The outer self includes our sense and the physical world.
According to Freud certain aspects of your personality are more primal and might pressure you
to act upon your most basic urges. Other parts of your personality work to counteract these
urges and strive to make you conform to the demands of reality. 
2. For me St. Augustine beliefs relates my own beliefs because I used to be a servant in a church before
so I believe that the God’s love make person find their true happiness or peace.
