The Buddha denies the existence of any
permanent entity either physical or mental. We call this theory
about self as Anatmavada.

By Anatmavada, Buddha Blog, on February 1st, 2016 Hundreds of stupid flies gather
On a piece of rotten meat,
Enjoying, they think, a delicious feast.
This image fits with the song
Of the myriads of foolish living beings
Who seek happiness in superficial pleasures;
In countless ways they try,
Yet I have never seen them satisfied.
The XIV Dalai Lama
By Anatmavada, Buddha Blog, on December 31st, 2015 We wish a happy new year ,
with mindfulness, compassion, and joy in the heart .

By Anatmavada, Buddha Blog, on November 22nd, 2015 We don’t need more money,
we don’t need greater success or fame,
we don’t need the perfect body or even the perfect mate—right now.
At this very moment,
we have a mind,
which is all the basic equipment we need to achieve complete happiness.
The XIV Dalai Lama
By Anatmavada, Buddha Blog, on November 14th, 2015 Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else;
you are the one who gets burned.”
The Buddha
Conquer the angry man by love.
Conquer the ill-natured man by goodness.
Conquer the miser with generosity.
Conquer the liar with truth
But what should we do with terrorists?
By Anatmavada, Buddha Blog, on November 2nd, 2015 People who really have their minds on the Way.
Do not forget work on the fundamental.
No matter what they are doing.
Yet if they still distinguish this work from ordinary activities,
even as they do them together, they will naturally be concerned
about being distracted by activities and forgetting the meditation work.
This is because of viewing things as outside the mind.
Muso Soseki
By Anatmavada, Buddha Blog, on October 2nd, 2015 Look for Buddha outside your own mind,
and Buddha becomes the devil.
Dogen Zenji
