If You're Not Your Body, Then What Are You? Buddhist Wisdom

If You're Not Your Body, Then What Are You? Buddhist Wisdom

Who are you, really? The Buddha discovered something radical: what we call "self" is actually five temporary processes flowing together – your body, feelings, perceptions, mental formations, and consciousness. And none of them are truly "you." In this video, we explore the Five Aggregates teaching with clarity and depth, drawing from authentic Buddhist suttas. This isn't abstract philosophy – it's an invitation to look directly at your own experience. When you're angry, where is the "I" who's angry? The answer might change everything.

00:00 - THE QUESTION
05:07 - FORM – Your Body Is Not You
09:05 - FEELING – Your Emotions Are Not You
13:17 - PERCEPTION – Your Labels Are Not You
17:27 - MENTAL FORMATIONS – Your Will Is Not A Controller
22:09 - CONSCIOUSNESS – Your Awareness Is Not A Soul
27:05 - SO WHAT ARE "YOU"?
