ABSTRACT
This chapter argues that two non-egological theories of consciousness, are untenable. The body of non-egological theory of consciousness has three parts namely Consciousness and the ego, The transcendence of the ego, Being and nothingness. Sartre's non-egological theory of consciousness needs to be clear on two key terms: consciousness and the ego. A consciousness can be an awareness of another consciousness, if the two consciousnesses are parts of the same stream. According to Sartre, consciousness is most of the time non-reflective and unreflected. Sartre's main thesis in TE is not that there is no subject of consciousness but that the ego is not the subject of consciousness. According to Morris, Sartre admits in Being and nothingness (BN) that there is a subject of consciousness, namely the body but Sartre refuses to identify this entity with the ego. The chapter ends with a brief conclusion in which it identify some questions about Sartre's non-egological theory of consciousness that remain unanswered.
