Sometimes the sense of self loves trying to get rid of itself, all the while maintaining itself on subtle levels.

This talk will explore anatta from a practical and experiential perspective.

Unsere Aufgabe besteht darin, die Täuschung zu durchschauen und unsere Triebe lenken zu können oder loslassen zu können.
