Of the various spiritual traditions I’ve studied over the last forty years, the Diamond Approach has been the one through which I’ve had the most direct, immediate, palpable, and enduring experience of our divine nature. I had not realized how fully one could experience the aliveness, joy, support, intelligence, and heartfulness of that nature until I engaged in the practices of the Diamond Approach, and how readily available those experiences could be. As I explored more deeply, I found that the perspective of the Diamond Approach began to make sense of what I’d encountered before through other teachings, and opened whole new vistas of insights and realizations. These experiences have, in turn, led to a sense of fulfillment and freedom I had not realized was possible.
