The Self and The Five Aggregates

Описание: What if the person you call "I" doesn't actually exist? Today we explore the most radical teaching in Buddhism: the illusion of the Self. Learn how deconstructing your identity is the first step toward true mental freedom.

At the heart of human suffering lies a misunderstanding of who we are. In this video, we use the Buddhist framework of the Five Aggregates to peel back the layers of existence:

The Physical & The Sensory: How our body and feelings create a false sense of "home."
Perception & Volition: The mental labels and choices that reinforce the ego.
Consciousness: The awareness that we mistakenly claim as "mine."

By examining these five components, we uncover the Three Characteristics of Existence: everything is impermanent (Anicca), unsatisfactory (Dukkha), and devoid of a soul (Anatta).
