Ajahn Brahm 2001 04 06 Anatta Non-Self part 2

[mujaku]

Surely, I have not preached that all sentient beings are without self. [On the other hand,] I always proclaim that all sentient beings possess the Buddha-nature. What else can the Buddha-nature be if not the Self [atman]? -~ Mahaparinirvana Sutra

I think this talk would have helped prevent muslim families who commit honor killing as a way of control and ego.

Not self seems so helpful to keeping a perspective and one that might cause less harm in the world AND MAYBE - besides helping us to be freer - might help us to feel our connection to other people, creatures, and the world at large. It's such a peaceful idea to think of not existing some day as an individual self, but melding into the rest of the universe.
