Meditation & Spiritual Teachers

Enlightenment is not a destination—it is a never-ending process of discovery and unfoldment. With Endless Enlightenment, cutting-edge teacher A.H. Almaas presents the latest evolution of his profound teaching, offering what he calls the view of totality through more than seven hours of insight and inquiry practice.

What do desire and passion have to do with the spiritual life? They are an essential part of it, according to A. H. Almaas and Karen Johnson. Conventional wisdom cautions that desire and passion are opposed to the spiritual path—that pursuing desire will take you more into the egoic world. And for most people, that is exactly what happens.

A.H. Almaas, whose writings brilliantly illustrate the unity of modern depth psychology and traditional spiritual wisdom, is a respected, pioneering teacher.

Intelligence is one of the defining characteristics of human beings: an inherent ability to respond to the world with awareness, knowledge, learning, and insight.

Over the past 25 years, A.H. Almaas—widely recognized as a leader in integrating spirituality and psychology—has been developing and teaching the Diamond Approach, a spiritual path that integrates the insights of Sufism, Buddhism, Gurdjieff, and other wisdom traditions with modern psychology.

In this book Almaas brings together concepts and experiences drawn from contemporary object relations theory, Freudian-based ego psychology, case studies from his own practice, and teaching from the highest levels of Buddhist and other Eastern practices.

Facets of Unity is the first book published on the enneagram of the holy ideas; all others have been focused on the enneagram of fixations.
