“Vedantic Self and Buddhist Non-Self” – Swami SARVAPRIYANANDA

It is said in the Katha Upanishad apropos of Atman that it is “joyous and without joy.” That is a state to which we accede as well by the affirmation as by the negation of a supreme principle, as much by the detour of Vedanta as by that of Mahayana.
