Troubles with No Self in Western Buddhism, by Pannobhasa

One of the big objections people have in the comments on Pannobhasa’s videos comes from western Buddhists who have to put a self into Buddhism. There is no self in Buddhism. Pannobhasa’s YouTube channel is @pannobhasa . David Reynolds, alias Paññobhāsa, and formerly known as Paññobhāsa Mahathera, is an American-born Theravada Buddhist philosopher and teacher. He has a degree in Biology and up until recently he was a monk with thirty years seniority in the ordained Sangha, with most of that time spent in the forests of Burma, and about half of it spent living and meditating alone in caves. After a few years at a monastery in the declining state of California he has migrated across the USA and has set himself up in a new, freer lay life in Greenville, South Carolina where he continues to write and teach. He has long been pretty well fed up with political correctness, and is moved to make a stand.
