Discover Your Truth Through Diamond Inquiry

With The Diamond Approach

In this course you’ll explore your inner world using a practice called Diamond Inquiry. Diamond Inquiry allows you to become more fully in touch with yourself and find clarity on your true purpose. Over the next 10 days, you’ll learn to develop a greater sense of presence and open up your experience by exploring the forces that drive us to connect, actualise ourselves and pursue certain impulses. Diamond Inquiry is the central practice of the Diamond Approach based on the work of A.H Almaas. It is as useful the first time you look inside as it is after decades of practice. Wherever you are in your journey, inquiry can help you turn inwards and find your natural next step. You will come to realise the many opportunities for growth and exploration already available to you.

Lesson 5

Lesson 6

The Freedom Of Inquiry

Inquiry is so free that it is open to anything that might appear in your inner ocean. Practicing Inquiry will expand the range of your inner world. This will activate a kind of inner coast guard called the Inner Critic, that stops you from experiencing anything it doesn’t approve of. You will learn how the Inner Cristic limits your freedom and gain ideas about how to Inquire into your Inner Critic.

Really enjoyed this exploration of seeing my mind, feeling my emotions through the heart and increasing awareness of what I am sensing in my body. I have found putting theee practices into my daily life has added a deep richness and feeling of a deeper connection to the present moment.

I’m going to do this again soon with a friend. Lots of treasure chests of gold in this ocean, that I only got glimpses of. Even so, I find that I am present more often. 🙏

Excellent course. It brings us home to our true nature by peeling back the layers in a very subtle way. It has provided me with greater depth into my inner realm where I stumbled upon great joy. Many thanks and much love for this wonderful course

Thank you for putting together and sharing this course! I have found it to be such a terrific fit for how I naturally process things, for how my internal world works. Having the imagery you described, and having the process of Inquiry explained in the way you did, really added so much as far as providing a sturdier framework for exploring my internal world. Thank you, especially, for creating such an open and welcoming attitude for all that we encounter within.

This is a wonderful process/practice for getting deeper in touch with what’s occurring in the self that is being overlooked or disallowed. It’s a wonderful way to become more grounded, clarify your truth, and better understand what needs your loving attention in yourself. Thank you for this course Dominic.

The continual reference to the sea metaphor was very helpful to the visual learner in me! I feel like I can better respond to stimuli now rather than just react
