About :

One of the most important teachings demonstrated by the Buddha is the existence of the reality of anatta. Anatta is no self or no soul. This reality was demonstrated by the Buddha not merely as a result of logic, but through the Buddha's meditative experience, gained through higher knowledge (abhiññā). He saw that the view that most people hold that there is a self, individual, being or soul, is actually a mental tendency. This view has been built up so solidly and strongly over countless births. In essence, there is no self or soul. What exists is a collection of various factors, namely briefly mind and body, and if described are the five aggregates (body, feeling, perception, mental formations and consciousness) which because they support each other, give rise to a view of the existence of a self. Seeing the existence of anatta is certainly not easy because for a very long time our minds have been indoctrinated to see a self, soul, I or individual. The reality of anatta will be clearly seen by someone meditating, by someone looking within themselves, seeing the relationship between mind and body, or seeing the relationship between the five aggregates. With meditation, one will see that every phenomenon, both mental and physical, is just arising and disappearing. With its existence that arises and disappears, there is no entity, self or individual there. All that exists is a phenomenon that is always changing, not fixed, not permanent. The more one looks inward, one will see that one cannot control the changes according to one's wishes. One cannot control one's feelings to always be happy, or control one's thoughts to always be peaceful. Because of this, where is the self, me, individual, spirit or entity found? Seeing the existence without self aims to prevent the mind from being attached to the mind and body. The Buddha pointed out that one of the reasons why one continues to be gripped by dukkha (suffering) is because of the mind's tendency to assume that there is a self or entity. When one feels belittled, one becomes angry. When one feels superior, one becomes arrogant and greedy. Many conflicts and sufferings arise because of this tendency. Therefore, recognizing the mind and body to see the reality of anatta is very important in a meditative life, for the sake of inner peace. For more details, watch the following video...
