This guy says all modern buddhism extends from a common interpretation of the concept of self. the self is not 'nothing', it is 'no thing'. this concept was misinterpreted to devolve into 'there is no self' and the attempt to flee from one's own psychological states.

Western buddhism is nothing like original buddhism. About as original as western yoga is to Hindu yoga. Or frogurt to ice cream.
