Diamond Heart Colorado January 2023
Public Newsletter
But because reality is alive, because it is irrepressibly dynamic and energetic, we see that fully realizing any condition means letting it go, means that we cannot hold on to it. We cannot hold any single condition as the final one or the real one, because we recognize that its full realization opens it up to further realization.
Almaas, A. H.. Runaway Realization (p. 89). Shambhala. Kindle Edition.
Happy Holidays Everyone and many Blessings in the New Year.
A year ago this December 30th, our beloved Diamond Heart facility on Marshall Drive, burned to the ground in that unforgettable 115 mile an hour straight line wind event. Our hearts and best wishes go out to all of those affected by that fire and wishing all a blessed 2023.
PUBLIC EVENTS
DH TEN Introductory Webinar:
CONFIDENCE, DETERMINATION, STEADFASTNESS
Join us for an introductory online event with Diamond Approach teacher, Andreas Mouskos. In this webinar we explore qualities related to the Will aspect of the human Essence, which is an amazing expression of our True Nature that grounds us and supports us as well.
SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 2023 from 10 am to 12:30 pm Mountain Time on zoom. A follow up webinar will be offered on Feb. 25, 2023.
“The keys to self-knowledge are right here before us in this very moment – if we can simply learn to live with open awareness. In The Unfolding Now, A.H. Almaas presents a marvelously effective practice for developing the transformative quality of presence.” - From the book jacket (Shamabala Publications, 2008)
Join Diamond Approach teacher Peter Bakwin for an in-depth exploration of one of Almaas’ most accessible books. We will investigate the first six chapters during bi-weekly, two-hour meetings on Zoom, combining group discussion and experiential exploration.
This is an excellent opportunity to get a flavor of the Diamond Approach teaching, or for those who are familiar with the teaching to dive more deeply in an informal, interactive group. Wednesdays from 6:30 to 8:30pm MST (Jan. 11, Jan. 25, Feb. 8, Feb. 22, Mar. 8 and Mar. 22, 2023). $90 for the series. Please read the chapter before each meeting. To register contact pbakwin@comcast.net
