人無我 [ren wu wo]—No-self of Persons — [Term] One of the Two No-selves (二無我 [er wu wo]). Also known as No-self of Sentient Beings (眾生無我 [zhong sheng wu wo]), Emptiness of Sentient Beings (生空 [sheng kong]), Emptiness of Persons (人空 [ren kong]), and Emptiness of Self (我空 [wo kong]). The human body is a temporary aggregation (假和合 [jia he he]) of the five skandhas (五蘊 [wu yun]), in which there is no true self-entity (真實之我體 [zhen shi zhi wo ti]). Therefore, it is called No-self of Persons.

人無我—【術語】二無我之一。又名眾生無我、生空、人空、我空。人體為五蘊之假和合,其中無真實之我體,故云人無我。
