Selfless Persons: Imagery and Thought in Theravada Buddhism

Steven Collins

Selfless Persons: Imagery and Thought in Theravada Buddhism

This book seeks to explain carefully and sympathetically the Buddhist doctrine of anatta ('not-self'), which denies the existence of any enduring essence in man. The author relates this doctrine to its cultural and historical context as well as the Theravada Buddhist tradition.
