How do you diffrentiate between your skanda and others skandha if you loss your identitiy of own.Arent these just one element. its like skandha teaching to itself

yup, eventually all nothing but, skandas - consciousnesses, mental factors, forms and nibbana.

Think of an AI computer game. There are different ppl in a city. Each of them are made by variables such as, feeling, excitement, perception, (lets say 52 variables). There characters think they are real they have, happiness, sorrow, etc... Oneday one guy cracks his code and finds he is nothing but a set of variables. He also sees the pain, happiness everything are just variables. He understands, all the trouble/struggle he puts in is worthless. He knows, the other characters in the city are the same. So, he passes the massage so they can find themselves truth.

-again an example only (for idiots)

yup, Buddhism appears in an era when one group thought, there is something permanent (self/soul/athman) other than the body that passes, while the other thought nothing is carried. All the religions (except Buddhism) fall under these two groups.

Buddha showed a being is nothing but a group of skandas, which are impermanent (anicca) and cant be taken as self (anatta). This is the whole base of Buddhism.
