Focusing on the anatta doctrine, the author explores how the Buddha approached the concept of self by negating all that is not the self. This method led to a profound realization that everything perceivable is ultimately anatta, or not-self. The author contrasts traditional teachings on the self (atta) with the Buddha's radical perspective, emphasizing his unique approach of defining identity through what it is not. This exploration highlights the philosophical depth of the anatta concept and its implications for understanding existence.
