Just want to chime in and note that the word void is a horrible translation of shunyata..which means empty of inherent existence. When Buddha say's there is no self he isn't denying the individual nature of each being. What he is saying is that there isn't a single aspect of our selves that isn't conditioned by other things. That really is all he is saying. Buddha would say I am because that is and that is because I am. Everything arises dependently... or Thich Nhat Hanh would call it dependent co-arising.. What it's not though is empty in the english sense of the word. it's full interconnectedness... like Indra's net. The part is in the whole, but the whole is also in the part.
