  • beautiful interview richard. thank you colin and carole for sharing with all of us.

  • Thanks Richard : )

  • @macdougdoug

    Once a statement is made it becomes testable.

    If it doesn't line up with "hard facts" what is it then?

    A faith claim, an unknown or an untrue statement.

  • This really isn't a question of faith, nor is it a question of literal truth. It is about shifting attention from the constant stream of thinking to the background which is bare awareness. It isn't anything mystical either, though I often describe these exercises as cognitive psychedelics. I suspect that what we do when we drop the critical thinking and just have fun with these, and they are fun, we activate a more primitive level of the brain, where we are just simply and purely alive.

  • @Ihatemelee

    funny you should take this as a faith thing - as its supposed to be about what one can discover if you look without knowing or believing..

    Like a baby that hasnt been told all the 'hard facts' - what do you actually see?

    Pretty impossible really - thats why they have these simple tricks/experiments with the no-head.

  • Faith, is faith, and without any hard facts is nothing but another unprovable truth claim not unlike those of the dogmatic abrahamic monotheists. Eating food and thinking it was disapearing into a void, not seeing his fingers while he was touching his own face , they did not fade away they were simply out of line of sight. Nothing mystical there at all.

  • Beyond beyond; an epiphany; I so appreciate Richard, Colin, and Carole sharing the ineffable experience here and now. For the Love As It Is I am so thankful! Colin describing his fingers disappearing into the space - priceless ... so tangibly intangible. Thank you Douglas Harding for referencing and sourcing, as Carole puts it, "the authetic way To Be". And as for Richard, what can one say ... I Love You, Man!

  • good one Richard and thank you for this marvellous work!!

  • Yes!!! ...me too, so touched by this! Huge gratitude to Richard, Colin and Carole, for sharing this real real-ness of their lives like this. So tangible the tender love here.

  • I am soo touched by THIS - THANKS sooo much for sharing this - I can feel the LOVE that IS there .... meeting in the boundless space - where name and form are - and are not - at the same time ...... All blessings to you - if you still need them :-))))))
