Harding was asking himself the question Who am I? He realised that what he appeared to be to others depended on their range from him. His observations and thinking included the following: at several feet he appeared human, but closer to he was just an eye, cells, molecules, atoms, electrons and so on, down to practically nothing. Moving away but still looking at him, the external observer lost sight of his individual form which became absorbed into humanity, life, the planet, the solar system, the galaxy. The map he drew of himself looked like an onion with many layers. The human layer was half-way out from the centre. The question Harding became particularly concerned with was: What or who is at the centre? Any other question became secondary to this one: Who am I really?
