Selflessness – one of the three Dharma seals
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the current integration and development context, people face crises in terms of economy, morality, living environment, etc. These problems originated from the perception and actions of each of us. In order to contribute to adjusting behavior, perfecting personal morality, and social development, the Buddha gave prominence to the philosophy of Selflessness in Buddhism transmission. This doctrine is considered one of Buddhism’s three Dharma seals (Impermanent – Sỏ - Selflessness). By the method of textology, comparison, and logic, the article will raise the outstanding values of “selflessness” in building ethical standards of individual Buddhist disciples and people in general from the Buddha’s perspective.
