In fact,

many scholars of Buddhism hold that the Buddha upheld the

doctrine of anattd or anatmavdda, no soul. As Oldenberg put it,

the Buddhists believed in a becoming and not in a being. In

consequence, it is concluded "In Buddhism there is no actor

apart from action, no percipient apart from perception. In other

words, there is no conscious subject behind consciousness."'

This, in short, leads to action (karma) without a doer (kartd). It

also repudiates the concept of transmigration and rebirth (punarjanma).

To believe in the doctrine of karma without accepting

the concepts ofjiva and its rebirth is evidently perplexing.

Answer:

❤️Early Buddhism

The Nikaya texts of Buddhism deny that there is anything called Ātman that is the substantial absolute or essence of a living being, an idea that distinguishes Buddhism from the Brahmanical (proto-Hindu) traditions. The Buddha argued that no permanent, unchanging "Self" can be found.
