I realized I had no true self when I was 13, and over my life this has developed into a theme. I feel as though I'm a series of masks, or personalities, all the way down into the abyss; if you try to uncover the truth of me, you'll find nothing there at all.

my recommendation for you (not that you asked for it) would be to skip the zen writings and do koan study with a teacher.

I'm curious how this affected your Christian beliefs at the time. I grew up Christian and imagine that if I had realised there was no self, Christianity would naturally have fallen away. Maybe not though.
