The best day of my life—my rebirthday, so to speak—was when I found I had no head. This is not a literary gambit, a witticism designed to arouse interest at any cost. I mean it in all seriousness: I have no head. READ MOREHarding's Moment of Discovery - Extract from On Having No Head

The only way to find our true Nature is to look steadily within.
Douglas Edison Harding (1909-2007) was an English
philosopher, mystic, spiritual teacher and author of a number of books,
including On Having No Head - Zen and the
Redisovery of the Obvious.
"There is a Reality which
is Indivisible, One, Alone, the Source and Being of all; not a thing, nor even
a mind, but pure Spirit or clear Consciousness; and we are That and nothing but
That, for That is our true Nature; and the only way to find It is to look
steadily within, where are to be found utmost peace, unfading joy, and eternal
life itself." (From Religions of the World by Douglas
Harding) http://www.headless.org/on-having-no-head.htm
