Center of Gravity

If I look for my center of gravity now, I find it "out there" - where the body (about midline-down) and the rest of the world is. And this is such a relief. Where others see a head, I find just wide open space for the world.

This may be partly due to Breema, but mostly to the Douglas Harding exercises.

After inquiring into my experience, using his experiments, I find that "headlessness" is just what is. And after seeing this clearly, it is very difficult to construct a sense of having a head and believing in it or take it seriously. It becomes just a convention, just for practical purposes.

    Yes, it is quite amusing, isn't it? :)

    And I agree, it is a whole lot of shit.

    But this too, is just part of the whole exploration process of Existence. Nonsense and detours. top
