COMMENTS ON A. H. ALMAAS AND
THE DIAMOND APPROACH

In my opinion, the Diamond Approach is a superb combination of some of the best of modern Western psychology with ancient (and spiritual) wisdom. ... I myself can recommend the Diamond Approach as probably the most balanced of the widely available spiritual psychologies/therapies. ... [Almaas's book] The Pearl Beyond Price is one of the truly great and pioneering books of the East West dialogue.

Ken Wilber, author of The Eye of Spirit, A Brief History of Everything, and other books

The sophistication of [Almaas's book, The Point of Existence] is stunning and the views stimulating to our sense of what human identity is and what we can be.

Sherry Ruth Anderson, co-author of The Feminine Face of God

[Almaas is] One of the most significant voices for a new and remarkably integrated spiritual vision. I respect his work to the highest degree and commend it to anyone interested in living the life of the spirit.

Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart and other books

The work of Hameed Ali places him among the greatest psychologists alive today. Ali's brilliant vision of the human psyche embraces our Being from early development to the highest realms of spirit. From this he then offers a new language and direct approach for awakening to this manifold nature. This excellent book gives the first overall view of the major dimensions of the Diamond Approach. In it John Davis does true credit to the importance of this work.

Jack Kornfield

[Almaas is] an astute and brilliant explorer.

John Welwood, author of Love and Awakening

We can think of no more significant woice in the transpersonal field than A. H. Almaas. His work is a seamless integration of cutting edge psycholoyg andprofound spirituality that addresses the concerns and hopes of contemporary people.

Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson, authors of Personality Types 

Lucid, precise and infinitely helpful to seekers everywhere, I heartily recommend FACETS OF UNITY (Almaas's most recent book) to Enneagram enthusiasts, to my own students of inner knowing, and to followers of every spiritual tradition.

Helen Palmer, author of The Enneagram
