"If there's no self, what is reborn?" It's confusing how to understand the traditional notion of rebirth in early Buddhism. In this video I'll look at both parts of the question: is there "no self" in Buddhism? What sort of "self" is there? And on a traditional understanding, what is reborn? Finally I'll turn to some of my own thoughts on the matter.
