“Why I am not a Buddhist” by Evan Thompson. I am half way through it. It did have some good points, but as is often the case with modern academic philosophy, it started to become word salad.

Regardless, it did provide me with great deal of inside when come to modern Buddhism, and Buddhism superiority believers. How the author tried to conceptualise the mind/self to the reader, was where the word salad started for me.

Personally, I find it easier to think of a being as a flame. Fire isn’t a state of matter you can weight, it’s a process, or rather its many a processes, that make the present you.
