Buddhism is ultimately about one single thing, getting rid of suffering. Suffering is caused by the pursuit of things that do not actually exist. What does not actually exist? Form that is permanent, satisfying, belonging to or defining a self. Feeling that is permanent, satisfying, belonging to or defining a self. Perception... Formations... Consciousness that is permanent, satisfying, belonging to or defining a self.
