Organic identity of an individual only exists in a 'Ship of Theseus' manner, and so end res only in a relative sense; in a different timescale it is subject to continual transformation. Its historicity only goes to the depth it needs to in order to ground its current state, beyond that it is 'path-independent'. There are aspects of the self which have this character as well, but even then it is only so that they can over on still deeper vistas. The self is that whose historicity necessarily leads back to the very first moment of creation.
