Anatta is the Buddhist teaching on the nonexistence of a permanent, independent self. It's a notoriously puzzling and elusive concept, usually leading to such questions as, "If I don't have a self, who's reading this sentence?" It's not that there's no self there, says Rodney Smith. It's just that the self that is reading this sentence is a configuration of elements that at one time did not exist and that at some point in the future will disperse.

The Buddha says that just as in the great ocean there is but one taste, the taste of salt, so in his doctrine and discipline there is but one taste, the taste of freedom.

In the process leading to deliverance from suffering, meditation is the means of generating the inner awakening required for liberation.

What if the most important book in the Buddhist canon is the one nobody reads?

How they work. The sixteen analytical modes, the five interpretive methods, the eighteen root concepts that every teaching connects back to - it's the operating system behind the entire Pali Canon.
