No self Nothing

No self = habits, thoughts, fear, image

No self = nothing to fight against, means "there is no you down to the core".

Missing the step = believing that we are trying to solve a riddle, not realizing the riddle doesn't exist.

Nothing = "at all"

You, This, These, Those, When, Where, Up, In, Out, Around, How, Who. Drop them.

To save all sentient beings, though beings are numberless.
To penetrate reality, though reality is boundless.
To transform all delusion, though delusions are immeasurable.
To attain the enlightened way, a way non-attainable.
