According to Kasulis, Hindu philosophers believed that perceiving requires a perceiver, which contradicts the Buddhist doctrine of anātman (no-self). Buddhists believed that there is no permanent self, while Hindus believed that there is an eternal self or soul (ātman) that is the perceiver of experiences. This fundamental difference in belief led to disagreements between the two traditions.
