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.
