Oh nonsense. The 'no self' (anatman) doctrine is fundamental
to all of Buddhism. It is SO fundamental that it is ensconced
in the "three marks" of Buddhism (which are 'dukkha' - suffering,
'annica' - impermanence, and 'anatman' - no-self).

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
There is NO SUCH THING as a " 'no self' (anatman) doctrine " in
Sutta, 22 nouns are anatta.

ANATTA nowhere negates the Atman, you are REFUTED, son.

a general acceptance of the concept of "A Doctrine of Anatta" exists
as a status quo, however there exists no substantiation for same in
sutta for Buddhism's denial of the atman, or in using the term anatta...

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

Advaita Vedanta uses the term Anatman (Pali: anatta) in the exact
same
fashion as does Buddhist doctrine
Which begs the question, why is 'Buddhism' so demonically ignorant as
to presume that the usage of the term anatman implies a denial of
the
Atman

#1. "Atma-anatma vivekah kartavyo bandha nuktaye"-"The wiseman should
discriminate between the Atman and the non-Atman (anatman) in order
to
be liberated." [Vivekacudamani of Samkara v. 152]
#2. "Anatman...
