I even work on loving the souls of difficult people. The only thing that has to shift for us to see love in everything and everyone is our perception. Ram Dass

THE HIDDEN TREASURES OF YOUR UNDERWORLD
Hatred, Peace & Power
Join us for an introductory four-part series
with Diamond Approach Teacher Andreas Mouskos.
Friday evenings, August 4, 11, 18 & September 1, 2023
from 5 pm to 8 pm Mountain Time on Zoom.
The spiritual traditions of humanity are replete with stories of ordinary human beings who descended into the Underworld, faced their demons and re-emerged as heroes and heroines.

These timeless stories speak of the time-tested process
that all who wish to live worthwhile lives have to undergo.

As Socrates said, "The unexamined life is not worth living!"
Carl Jung spoke extensively of the need for all of us to face our shadow.
In this four-part series we will explore the specific demon of Hatred.
We'll delve into the very nature of Hatred and find out what hidden treasures
lie within this dark, tarry pit that lies within each human soul.
Join Andreas to find out what hidden treasures await you in your own personal underworld.
Tuition benefits 100% the Diamond Approach Australia, a non-profit organization disseminating the teaching in Australia,
and costs $220 Australian dollars (about $151 US dollars).
You will be charged in Australian dollars when you register here.
THE PARADOXICAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HATRED & PEACE

Join us for a FREE, exciting introductory online event
with Diamond Approach Teacher Andreas Mouskos.
On Saturday, August 12, 2023
from 10 am to 12:30 pm Mountain Time on Zoom.

We can all see how hatred can easily and predictably lead to violence and war.

This has been the case for as long as human history has been recorded.
And yet, what is so obvious to all of us, is not the whole truth!

Hatred can also be a very direct doorway to real and deep peace.
We need to find a way to unlock this very dangerous and powerful door
that lies hidden in our own soul,
if we can hope to ever feel lasting peace within ourselves
and in our world at large.

In this FREE introductory zoom event we will explore this crucial topic of vital importance.

OTHER CONTRIBUTIONS
I live by the light

I feel my place in the snow storm
I feel deep space at night
I thrive in conjunction with the true nature of these.

It is my place to fly in the breeze
and when time comes,
to lie with the leaves.

It's within my burdens to expand
and contract like the seasons I follow.

Be steady my heart,
for nothing stays the same
nothing ever becomes a thing unto itself
all things like the seasons change.

We are free from having to arrange
we are free from a definite plan,
with all of it's labors.

They say the universe is expanding
but that suggests
a thing with a beginning and an end.

Our light comes from our sun,
like billions of other suns,
held by the dark live space.

I live by our light
that is held by the night . . .
all of this lives in my heart….
