Über diesen Titel
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. Even in its present existence, it's more a temporary arrangement of components rather than something solid.
Anatta is a truth the Buddha considered to be absolutely essential to his teaching. Smith shows that understanding this truth can change the way you relate to the world and that the perspective of selflessness is critically important for anyone involved in spiritual practice. Seeing it can be the key to getting past the idea that spirituality has something to do with self-improvement and to accessing the joy of deep insight into reality.

Many inspiring passages but hard to listen to
The book has been recommended to me by a mediation teacher I respect very much. Although there are many interesting and inspiring parts and I have the feeling that the author has gained deep insights, the book overall was a very difficult listening experience for me. The author uses many abstract images. I am a mathematician, so the images of e.g. dimensions are familiar to me. But due to this abstract language I found it very hard to follow and to connect. Probably it is also more beneficial to read it as a book because the ideas are very complex and some sentences would have required to be read multiple times by me to get them. The speaker pronounces very well but somehow I didn't like the voice and this made it also hard for me to listen to.
