Description
On Having No Head is a profound exploration of the nature of the self, first published in 1961. Douglas Harding's groundbreaking work conveys the experience of a profound shift in consciousness, where the boundaries of the individual ego dissolve.
In this deeply personal and philosophical account, Harding describes his own experience of 'headlessness', or the loss of a sense of self. He writes of a state where the distinctions between past, present, and future disappear, and the individual is left feeling 'lighter than air, clearer than glass, altogether released from myself, I was nowhere around'.
This book offers a unique insight into the world of Eastern philosophy, particularly Zen Buddhism, and is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in exploring the nature of reality and the human condition.
