Richard Lang is a philosopher, author, and the leading proponent of the "Headless Way" – a method of self-inquiry first developed by Douglas Harding. After meeting Harding at age 17 in 1970, Richard has spent over five decades exploring, practising, and sharing the Headless Way Approach.
In this conversation, we explore:
— The revolutionary insight that you cannot see your own head, and what this simple observation reveals about consciousness and identity
— How our sense of self changes depending on the "range of the observer" and why this matters
— Why Richard believes Douglas Harding discovered "the center" that religions and science have been seeking
— How this understanding transforms our relationship with others, death, time, and purpose
And more.

Richard Lang was a student of Douglas Harding, author of “On having no head” and the founder of a contemplation method called "The Headless Way". As Richard describes it, The Headless Way is a modern way of seeing our true nature, the limitless ’space’ we are looking out of. Richard has been practising and sharing the Headless Way for over fifty years now, and has also written several books about it. His mission is to make seeing our true nature as widely available as possible.
