I don't really understand the concept of absolute self or soul. What is it that platonism asserts/buddhism denies in the first place?
When I think of the soul I think of the astral body or something like that but apparently that's not the true self. So what is? Does buddhism really say there's no true self even though nirvana is pretty much just a return to the One?
