“Technology has a part in our awakening, and ultimately—rather than seeing technology as something to tolerate—to understand it as a reflection of the unity of presence and a powerful vehicle to support our individual and collective awakening.”
HAMEED AND KAREN - Co-Founders of the Diamond Approach
Advances in technology have served to shrink our geographical world, increase our access to learning and expand our opportunities to connect. As an alive and unfolding teaching, the Diamond Approach is responsive to these changes.
While the teaching of this path has primarily been delivered in face-to-face meetings, increasing access through online options for those with location, time and financial constraints, is a major area of development.
Diamond Approach Australia and the wider Ridhwan School have a multimodal and multidimensional vision for how to make the teaching of the Diamond Approach path more accessible to people in Australia and around the world.
Webinars
The Diamond Approach Australia free online webinars aim to provide you with an opportunity to get a taste of the Diamond Approach in an accessible way, regardless of your location. Each webinar is a one-off learning experience with no prior experience required.
Webinars run from 9am-11am on Saturday mornings (Australian Eastern Standard Time).

Waking Up
February, 2016
Anne Laney
33:59
Awakening is seen in many spiritual traditions to describe a condition of lightness and revelation in the mind, heart and body. It feels like entering another universe – one we barely knew existed. Some of us come to awakening slowly, and some of us have sudden openings that need to be understood and integrated. In this webinar you will learn more about what it is that awakens, and what supports being awake in your life. How did you go to sleep in the first place? Why are you happier when you are more awake?

In Search of the Miraculous
March, 2018
Laurie Wattell
43:14
Searching is intrinsic to all humans. For some it will manifest in travelling the world; for others it is following their dreams. Most of our seeking is based on a belief that what we are looking for is outside of us. What if true nature is activating your search? Is it possible that you are simply responding to an inner call? In this webinar you will explore what motivates people to be in search of the miraculous.

The Inherent Value of Being
July, 2019
Jane Armytage
19:06
Value is a quality we tend to ascribe to external things, to external behaviours and accomplishments. In this webinar, you will explore value from the point of view of the Diamond Approach path, which teaches that value is a quality of presence that is independent of the mind and of the past.

Essence: The Elixir of Enlightenment – The Diamond Approach to Inner Realization by A.H. Almaas
Essence is the agent of transformation, the elixir of enlightenment.
It is the hope, the solution, the fulfillment.
A. H. Almaas
Awakening to Presence – We all know times when we feel aware, awake, alive, alert. Perhaps it’s the scent of a pink rose that captivates us, or a vast, night sky that stills our mind. Perhaps it’s the miracle of birth or the grave solemnity of death. It may be in a situation of danger that demands our undivided attention, strength and capacity.
At these times of heightened Presence, we wake up to the immediacy of the moment. We might notice the contrast with our usual, every day self, that often feels like we’re running on auto pilot, and wonder what happened to our aliveness and immediacy.
In this webinar we will explore what it means to reawaken to Presence, not just as a fleeting experience, but as the abiding ground, and a guiding principle in our life. Presence is the defining feature of our innate, human Essence with its many qualities: joy, love, vitality, peace, compassion, intelligence, aliveness and others

A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step; and the first step starts exactly where we are.
This is a fundamental principle of the Diamond Approach: being aware of where we are in each moment.
In this webinar we will explore how to learn to be where we are in the moment and how to use that as our springboard to dive deeper into the nature of our consciousness and reality. Come join me in this exciting exploration into the now!

How do you approach the Inner Journey?
Are you an ultralight minimalist, or do you load up the Winnebago? Do you stubbornly resist planning to keep your options open, or is your itinerary planned to the max? Do you fly solo or are you bring-a-friend?
Maybe traversing the edge of the abyss is the thrill you seek, or perhaps you are at your best at the captain’s table.
From outer space to the deepest depths – we all have our preferences and pre-existing ideas about how the inner journey might unfold. Let’s explore!

Socrates famously said, the unexamined life is not worth living. Why did Socrates put such value on examining life?
Another way to translate this sentence is: Life that is not tested, or inspected closely, for its reality, is unworthy of human beings.
So, how can you test your life for its reality? What is needed for that? And what is the value of it?
In this webinar, we will look at these questions in a way that illuminates both the work Socrates was doing, and the inquiry work now, as it is practiced in the Diamond Approach. Join us for an opportunity to inspect closely the reality of your life.

Many of us have become accustomed to the judgmental inner voice and complacent to the pain of the criticisms.
We want to come together and begin this exploration: how might life manifest if the inner critical voice were to quiet? How would this affect my self-expression? And what is it that is needed to bring about this change?
We will explore these questions through the lens of the Diamond Approach.

Book groups

Event Details
The book Essence provides a comprehensive overview and discussion of the significant stages in the journey of self-realisation:
- Presence and essence: what it is, what it’s not
- Essence in infancy
- Loss of essence: our fall from grace, development of ego-personality
- Retrieval of essence: re-awakening essence, working through psychodynamic issues
- Development of essence: life as a mature, human being – the Pearl beyond Price.
What calls to you?
The desire for freedom, liberation, enlightenment or whatever it is called is not a response to a call from outside you. It is not a desire for self-improvement. The search is a very personal concern, an intimately personal interest in your situation. It is a response to a call deep within you. The quest does not bring about improvement or perfection, it brings about a maturity, a humanity and a wisdom.
(Essence – Epilogue, A. H. Almaas)
Start: This study group commences with the option of a free webinar on Saturday March 27 followed by eight meetings.
