Few days ago, I saw your blog and thought that you need to be more universal for you are creative.. Hope you would be universal one day.The best way to understand No self theory is that if one dies in this moment how can it be reborn in next moment.. Buddha says it is not the first and no other.. It is not possible to explain what I understand.. unless you try to understand at the experiential level.. If you practice Anapana sati we both experience some limited types of experiences.. But if we start talking about it from books we can go on trying to compare our mental pictures... which are endless.For just once at least..stop browsing for few minutes and start watching your breath and what happens when you do that. You would be surprised to see that how difficult it is.The sankharas coming up in you will lead your mind... it will be difficult to watch your breath.. So far you thought YOU are thinking... but NO.Your mind creat thoughts and you follow them... Every thought has some stimulation from outside or from inside... We are slaves of our mind... Aththanan damayanthi panditha.. Wise tames the mind.</blockquote>
