The permanence of Atman

Master Kosen – Published on February 25 – buddhism

Question

Dear Master,

Buddhism denies the permanence of Atman.

Hinduism goes as far as liberating Atman from the phenomenal world.

These seem to be mutually exclusive positions.



A little explanation, please!






shuku so ko hei

Answer from Master Kosen

There may be confusion about the meaning of the words we use, but reality is the same for everyone.
