On Having No Head - Douglas Edison Harding by Douglas Edison Harding
Reason and imagination and all mental chatter died down I forgot my name, my humanness, my thingness, all that could be called me or mine. Past and future dropped away Lighter than air, clearer than glass, altogether released from myself, I was nowhere around. Thus Douglas Harding describes his first experience of headlessness, or no self. First published in 1961, this is a classic work which conveys the experience that mystics of all times have tried to put words to.
