   Talk #6: Anatta (no self)

   Anatta — literally "non-self" — is one of the three marks of existence in early Buddhist teaching, alongside dukkha and anicca (impermanence), which we'll cover next time. The claim is not that "you" are an illusion in the sense of not existing at all — that's a common misreading. The claim is narrower and more precise: what we call the self is not a single, unchanging, independent essence sitting behind experience, directing it. Instead, it's a constantly shifting bundle of processes — physical form, sensation, perception, mental formations, consciousness (the "five aggregates," or *khandhas*) — that arise and pass in dependence on conditions, with no fixed, permanent core running the show.

   Talk 5: The Eightfold Path

   If dukkha is the diagnosis, the Eightfold Path is the treatment plan. But treatment plans can look like arbitrary lists until you see the logic connecting the parts. Today: what the eight factors actually are, how they group together, and why the grouping matters more than the number eight.

   Introduction to Secular Buddhism

   "Secular Buddhism" isn't a single school or lineage — it's more of a stance, taken up by people from different Buddhist backgrounds (Zen, Theravada, Tibetan) who converge on a similar move: treat the Buddha's teaching primarily as a practical method for reducing suffering and living well, rather than as a body of revealed metaphysical truth to be taken on faith.
