The True Nature of Existence (Class 3)

There's another BuddhistSummerSchool.org?
What is the Heart Sutra really about other than realizing that all of these "heaps" or "aggregates" are devoid of self, empty (shunyata), without self, not the property of a self, not under the control of a self? But there seems to be a "self" (atta, atman, or soul). What is that? That is the functional integration of the Five Aggregates: form, feelings, perceptions, mental formations, consciousness.

But if 'I' am not I, what am I?
