This book begins with the question ‘Who am I?’ and immediately sets off in an astonishingly original direction. Why didn’t anyone before Harding think of responding to this question like this? It’s so obvious, once you see it.
Harding presents a new vision of our place in the universe that uses the scientific method of looking to see what is true. It turns out that the truth about ourselves is not only true but also very good, and breathtakingly beautiful. We live in a sacred, many-layered, living universe – or rather it lives in us.
Though it was completed in 1952, this book is still ahead of its time. One day it will surely be widely recognised for its greatness its all-encompassing vision, its originality and freshness, its depth of insight, its wide-ranging knowledge, the clarity and poetry of its language, its humanity. It is a world-view not dependent on local culture or religion, but on universally verifiable facts. It is also a world-view that respects our manifest differences whilst celebrating our underlying unity – the unity not just of oneself with other individuals but with all of life, indeed with the whole universe.
Harding died in 2007 aged 97, leaving behind him an impressive body of work. He was a highly creative person who was passionate about – he was in love with – this living universe and the immortal treasure that abides at its centre – at our centre.
“A work of the highest genius.” C. S. Lewis.
The Hierarchy of Heaven and Earth edition by Douglas Harding Politics Social Sciences eBooks
D. E. Harding has authored numerous books, most of which I have read. This is by far the most complex.THE HIERARCHY OF HEAVEN AND AND EARTH is a work of genius. In that, I agree fully with C. S. Lewis, who authors the forward.
That said no attempt whatsoever seems to have been made to make this book simple or even comprehensible. I am well read and I’ve written several books myself, however I was checking my dictionary more often with this book than any with any other I have read over the past couple of decades—including the unabridged works of the great philosopher, George Berkeley, authored three centuries ago.
With the exception of the beginning, this book bears almost no resemblance to the author’s other books—those are short, funny, easy to understand, and most important, applicable. THE HIERARCHY OF HEAVEN AND EARTH, on the other hand, is an intricate opus.
Though brilliant, unique, profound, and significant, this book was written in such a manner as to exclude the majority of readers, making A COURSE IN MIRACLES child’s play by comparison. I laughed out loud, literally, when I saw an actual formula appearing out of the blue with no discernible explanation—d2r/ds2=⅓λr, and that was not because humor was intended, but because it wasn’t!
I wouldn’t recommend THE HIERARCHY OF HEAVEN AND EARTH to anyone without an open mind and an abundance of patience. This is not so much a read as it is a study, and at the same time, it requires a constant letting go to allow apparent contradictions to flow through and be experienced at a level deeper than the intellect.
This is not so much a book as it is a meditation. Reading it and loving it entails an openness that would more likely be a prior given state, rather than something that would evolve through the reading itself.

The Hierarchy of Heaven and Earth edition by Douglas Harding Politics Social Sciences eBooks Reviews
Fear not. Dive in. This is the sort of book one keeps around for decades.
Books sometimes are like children's clothes - they have to be grown into. This is one of them.
Look for yourself. Avoid others' conclusions. Look for yourself. Like a grown up.
You'll find nothing. And everything.
A great book that gets your mind thinking in different directions!
Thank you .
excellent
Douglas Harding's writing are so profound and timeless they will never be outdated. This book is no exception as Harding leads us further and further into the simplicity of disconnecting us from our "heads." In this book he shows us the way to oneness that is often spoken of but rarely illustrated as Harding can. Ultimately the point at which we comprehend "everything" is precisely at the point where "nothing" exists. In this space we find the simplistic beauty of everything which is ultimately the only way to experience anything! Wonderful book, by a wonderful Seer.

This book is dense and hard to understand at times, but still totally amazing and worth it.
"Our survival [beyond death], coming under the law of elsewhereness, is the enjoyment of others’ survival, and our immortality consists in making room now for the immortal Whole."
"Is not such immortality only a euphemism for extinction? Yes, if it were not that the Whole, while removing every hierarchical distinction, ensures that no distinction once made is ever lost. The destruction of time is the preservation of all the things of time. The finished picture conserves as well as completes every brush-mark.
"And this is indeed what we want—to be our sole selves yet rescued from ourselves, to be immortal yet relieved for the weariness of time that goes on for ever and ever, to be sure that none of the immense agonies and labors and joys of the past is forgotten, to know that our present striving (however seemingly useless) is not wasted, to be rid of all desire to sacrifice any man upon the altar of some glorious Moloch-future, and above all to enjoy undying life now in the middle of time. No grandiose time-table of cosmic migrations, no unbodied spirit-life however lofty, no version whatever of survival can meet the case, except as it issues in this version."
