karma/ Belief in a self results in egoism hense in suffering

[아눌라]

 

The Buddhist deny that any of the five aggregates individually or in combination may be considered to an ego, self, or soul (attaa). Indeed, it is erroneous to conceive of any unity behind the elements which comprise an individual. The Buddha held that belief in a self behind the khandhas results in egoism, attachment, craving and, hense, in suffering. Thus the Buddha taught the doctrine of anattaa, that is, the doctrine that there is no permanent self, in order to draw people away from their egoistic attachments.
