This is more than interesting: it is useful and a lifeline out of ‘new age’ confusion Brand #x: just locating teaching is almost impossibly difficult and full of surprising surprisings: multiple decades after buddhist musings over atman, anatma, we see it clearly claimed the whole game as verbiage in books is garbage.
Over and over treks(paths?) bomb out and after 50 changes of direction you realize that modernity has no real path.
Whatever the case it is good to be wary of buddhist books, if virtually all the literature is a form of fiction.
