All Welcome.

Hello, this is John. I facilitate the introductory online workshops on Mondays. I will be guiding everyone through experiments that point directly to our true nature. (By the way, you can check out the experiments beforehand on the website if you feel like it. I recommend the Pointing Experiment)

FEEDBACK from previous sessions:
I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your Zoom workshop last night; a really interesting experience.
That was a great session. Thank you!!
Thanks for the inspiring evening last night.
Last night I logged on expecting that maybe hearing them from an "expert" would somehow make the exercises more powerful. But no. What it did was emphasise how fantastically simple they are, and all the more powerful for it.
Thanks for this! What a wonderful set of exercises!
This way of being has really changed my life.
Thank you very much for sharing your experiences with us this evening. I understand it so much better now through the visual exercises you did with us. We look forward to participating in other video meetings in the future, and having fun practicing in daily life.
Thank you so much. Very refreshing, honest and kind. I can also very much relate to what you say about your experience of headlessness. So glad I found you and Richard and all the others and that we get to have these Zoom exchanges.
Thanks so much for the insight you provided today. I was hoping today would stoke my interest and continued inquiry into the headless way, and it didn't disappoint!
Thanks for the delightful introduction, I look forward to more interaction.
Thank you for the links and yesterday’s workshop or rather a ‘play’ shop!
Thank you so much for hosting the session and showing us the experiments. It was a huge amount of fun and I’ve been left with a huge smile on my face, it’s wonderful to share the experience.

The Technology of Awakening
- Wednesday, March 24, 2021
Brentyn Ramm's paper 'The Technology of Awakening' has just been published.
Much thanks to the Shollond Trust for funding the publication of the article in an open access format. The copyright is creative commons so it can be freely shared and can be posted or reproduced anywhere as long as the original source is acknowledged.
https://www.mdpi.com/2077-1444/12/3/192
From the abstract:
"In this paper, I investigate the phenomenology of awakening in Chinese Zen Buddhism. In this tradition, to awaken is to ‘see your true nature’. In particular, the two aspects of awakening are:(1) seeing that the nature of one’s self or mind is empty or void and (2) an erasing of the usual (though merely apparent) boundary between subject and object. In the early Zen tradition, there are many references to awakening as chopping off your head, not having eyes, nose and tongue, and seeing your ‘Original Face’. These references bear a remarkable resemblance to an approach to awakening developed by Douglas Harding. I will guide the reader through a series of Harding’s first-person experiments which investigate the gap where you cannot see your own head. I will endeavour to show that these methods, although radically different from traditional meditation techniques, result in an experience with striking similarities to Zen accounts of awakening, in particular, as experiencing oneself as empty or void and yet totally united with the given world."

The Hierarchy of Heaven and Earth - eBook
When Douglas Harding completed the large book The Hierarchy of Heaven and Earth, he didn't think it would be published in that huge format, so he then wrote a condensed version. This is the version that was first published in 1952, and which C. S. Lewis read and wrote the preface for. We have now published this book as an eBook.
Interview with Colin & Carole Oliver is now on youtube with Slovenian subtitles. Thanks, Miha!
AUGUST 2011
The Hierarchy of Heaven and Earth - digital edition of original manuscript.
The original version of The Hierarchy of Heaven and Earth (A New Diagram of Man in the Universe) by Douglas Harding is now available in our bookshop as a downloadable file.
I will speak from my heart about this book. This book is the book I would take with me to a desert island if I were allowed only one book.
It is, so to speak, a modern Bible of who we really are. Most people don’t read the whole of the Bible (or the Koran, or On The Origin of Species, I suppose...) but are nevertheless profoundly influenced by such books. I believe The Hierarchy is of the same order. And (like Darwin’s masterpiece) it is a book that is independent of local culture or religion. It is a book for the modern planet.
Douglas Harding spent at least eight years writing this book (in the 1940s) - more or less fourteen hours a day, seven days a week. He saw who he really was and then thought, felt and wrote deeply, consistently, cooly, passionately, about what he had found - how it made sense and what it meant for the world.
C.S. Lewis called The Hierarchy “a work of the highest genius”. I fully agree. Lewis only read the condensed version but he declared that it left him “roaring drunk”. I’ve read both the condensed version and this huge original version (many times) and I am like Lewis. I am drunk with its genius.
I believe the publication of this book in digital form is the equivalent of the moment when the Bible was made available to a wide audience with the invention of the printing press. Now anyone with £20 to spend can dip into, and perhaps even read the whole of!, this phenomenal book. Douglas took years to produce this one book (plus one copy). He finished it in 1950. In 1998 the Shollond Trust (with Crowquill) produced 300 copies. Thanks to the generous work of many volunteers, lovingly managed by my friend Navi Blight (supported by her husband Sam) the Shollond Trust can now from August 2011 offer this book to as many people as click the button on our website. Thank you friends, thank you Navi and Sam, thank you Douglas. It is a great achievement.
Douglas once said that although the universe is often a tragic and terrible place, even so, a universe that produces the music of Mozart is a wonderful universe, a beautiful universe. I say, a universe that produces The Hierarchy of Heaven and Earth is, in spite of all the terror and tragedy in the world, a wonderful, beautiful universe.
Here’s the link: The Hierarchy
Best wishes,
Richard Lang

There's a very good exchange between the spiritual teacher Gangaji and
a friend of hers on Youtube where the friend so clearly and
passionately describes being free of the face he sees in the mirror,
and being face to no-face with Gangaji. It's only a couple of minutes.
Here's the link - The Face in the Mirror

We have a new book in the bookshop - "The Light That I Am" by J.C. Amberchele. There are a couple of articles by Amberchele on the website, so some of you will know of him already. I've also mentioned him in Reflections - he's the friend in prison who enjoys not being in prison. It's an inspiring read.
Sam Blight did a great interview on NeverNotHere.

3/12/07. Toolkit for Discovering Who You Are available via bookshop.
After Douglas Harding died in January of this year, I helped his wife, Catherine, sort out his books. We found a number of 'yellow toolkits', also known as the 'Toolkit for Discovering Who You Really Are'. These were designed by Douglas and produced in the mid '70s by EST, an organization that set up several large workshops, mainly in the States, at which Douglas presented Seeing. In Denver, apparently, there were about 2000 people at the workshop. (If you were present at any of these workshops, I would be interested to hear from you about your experience.) Each participant received one of these toolkits. I have a small pile of these toolkits, and so this limited number is now available in the bookshop at £5.00 each, plus mailing costs. There is a bit more information about them in the bookshop.
30/11/07. Newly designed website goes online.
