What provides us with true wisdom to guide us on our inner journey and our lives?

Diamond Guidance is a true inner guide that brightly illuminates our experience so that we can see and know ourselves with pure clarity and precision. It doesn't tell us what to do, but it gives us the capacity to distinguish the truth from the false. In this way it guides our inquiry and our lives to greater connection to our True Nature

The Yellow Essence can manifest as essential lighthearted playfulness. It is also experimental and happily creative in a way that is needed to disengage from our superego, the inner critic. This allows our inquiry to be truly guided to reveal the truth of who we really are.

In these changing times, Inquiry, the central practice of the Diamond Approach, offers a powerful, dynamic doorway to becoming more anchored in your own personal experience in the moment. It is a unique method of self-understanding.

We will meet live as a group, and you will have the opportunity to inquire individually with the teacher while in the supportive online presence of the other group members. This is open to the public.

We will also explore and learn meditation, and sensing practice, which are supportive to understanding the Diamond Approach.
