I haven't watched his videos but I'm reading and enjoying "On being Headless"  and some of the experiments on the website are useful.http://www.headless.org/experiments/pointing.htm

Just want to say thanks for a good laugh I had today regarding a reply you made to one of the other posts. It was one of the best pop the balloon, pull your head in replies (in a nice way), I've seen for a while. Why did I laugh?. I was imagining what he/she felt when he/she posted the last comment, then read your reply, and bang, I got that wrong, haha.
You can delete this, I just felt like saying something :)

Why so busy, what are you planning?
And what is that UXO expedition? *assuming that's a way to meeting you in person*?

P.S.Today stroke me as really weird the fact of you becoming something like an internet cult (it's crazy weird.look how many people are FASCINATED by you.some people believe you to be the best writer,your books being for some the best books they ever read), but nobody knows who you are.Hillarious
I dont ask with arrogance but curiosity.Why? Why the trouble of hiding?

why the belief that anything could be hidden?

'man plans, god laughs.'

as i understood it, the uxo is an ongoing mine removal mission.

The answer to all ''why'' questions is ''because''. Humans usually ask why under the pretext that they want to understand something. If they really want to understand they would ask more ''how'' questions. '''How'' is much more useful.

Watch very closely when a ''why'' question arises. You will find that almost all the time it is an egoic attempt to either make someone wrong or make you right. A ''why'' question has the feel of a pointing finger. To be ''right'' is one of the strongest motivations of ego. Don't take my word for it, what this mechanism in self and others.

Love ya, Jed. (don't ask me why I love ya, I just do)

so... how the belief anything could be hidden?

an egoic sense of individuality that blindly asserts it has a mind of its own and its thoughts are private. also known as the basis of separation.

if it weren't for pointing fingers, where to look might be less evident.
no right, no wrong, just what's been observed.

love ya, i

And, if one were headless, how would one know where to point?
