Summary

Richard Lang is the Co-ordinator of the Shollond Trust, a UK charity focussed on sharing the Headless Way.

If you see a person from 6 feet away, they're a person. From 100,000 miles away they're a planet. From a few microns away they're cells. So what are they at their very centre? Who are we?

This is the central question of The Headless Way and today Richard takes us through Douglas Harding's work to answer it along with some meditations and experiments you can do to illuminate these insights for yourself.
