A look at how the modern 'narcissism epidemic' sits with the dharmic concept of 'not-self'.

This talk looks at what has recently been called the 'narcissism epidemic' in light of one of the core teachings of the Buddha - the delusion that we are independent, in-control beings with fixed, solid identities.
