What have you learned as a result of studying the Diamond Approach?: 

My essential nature is not an idea of what I am, but Being itself. Most importantly, I have discovered that I don’t need to arrive at any final destination. What matters to me now is the endless unfolding of what I can know, feel, and embody in the world.

What attracted you to the Diamond Approach?: 

I first learned about the work from a colleague and mentor who had been involved in the Diamond Approach for a few years. At the time, I was looking for a community where I could explore spiritual work. Having studied philosophy and psychology in college, and having tried various teachings and approaches to inner exploration, nothing had yet felt like the right fit. Knowing my interests, my colleague recommended Essence with the Elixir of Enlightenment by A. H. Almaas and told me about an upcoming weekend retreat. I read the book and found it deeply engaging, so I decided to attend the retreat.

Going to that first weekend retreat, I wasn’t sure what I would find. My first impression was that there was nothing flashy or elaborate about the setup. The teacher presented the teaching in a straightforward way, yet it carried a depth and truth that felt familiar, like something I knew, or at least could recognize, but hadn't been able to really discern clearly on my own. I felt challenged, but never overwhelmed. It seemed like the right place to explore and discover more about my inner nature.

Over time, what has kept drawing me to this teaching and path is its inclusion of every aspect of our life experience. No stone is left unturned. There’s a spirit of open, loving curiosity about what it means to be human, and a deep understanding that we all long to live with as much freedom as possible, and to support others in doing the same.

What is most important for people to understand about the Diamond Approach?: 

The Diamond Approach is like going to university for your consciousness. And by conscoiusness, that means all of you - your mind; your heart; and your sensing, embodied life. You are becoming a student in a school. And the curriculum here is profoundly interactive and engaging. You won't be sitting back and just letting things happen. From the beginning, you are asked to check things out for yourself, work on your own and work with others, and inquire into your own experience. In a real sense, you are continuing the journey of growing as a person that began when you were born. There may be sudden, quantum leaps of understanding. And there is also the gradual, meaningful work of integrating your discoveries into your life.
