What is the meaning of the word *atammayata*? Is it Pali or Sanskrit? I couldn't find it in any Pali-English dictionary.
Where is it used and in what context? Please provide references from suttas and/or commentaries.
From a Google search, I found various translations like "unconcoctability" or "non-identification" and one person suggested that it's a synonym for "not-self". Is that the case? How is *atammayata* different from not-self?
In this question , it was translated as "renunciation equanimity".
Why is *atammayata* important?
I discovered it in this answer .
