Human: Returning to the Center
Featured in this weeks Zencast, Douglas Harding of Headless.org. I encourage you to visit the website, and experiment with some of the exercises, and watch some of the movies available. The talk featured this week is from Douglas & Catherines talk at IMC in 2002, titled, “Headlessness and the Single “I”
From Venus I am Earth, from Sirius I am the Sun, from Andromeda I am the Milky Way.
.. no matter how distant my observation post out there, from where can I be observed as everything?… for that observation post itself would not be included in what was being observed.
There is no place where I as a part transform into the Whole.
If however I return back through all my layers to my centre, I discover here the wholeness I had been searching for there. Where I am no-thing, where there is no division between knower and known, I am not separate from the world. Here I die as “human” say, or as the Earth, or the Milky Way, or as a cell, or a particle, or anything, and am resurrected as all things. Boundless, not one single thing is outside me – I am in everything and everything is in me.
From Douglas Harding’s Layers of the Hierarchy / The Whole
