About the Author

Douglas Harding (1909-2007) was a British philosopher who worked out a modern map of our place in the universe. Harding invented experiments for testing the view that at centre, at zero distance, you are different from your appearance at say ten feet. At zero distance you are 'space for the world'. Harding's experiments mean you don't believe this, you test it for yourself. This insight corresponds with what all great mystics have said about who we really are.
