What is the Diamond Light?
The “Diamond Light” is what we call the seed of luminous consciousness that resides in each person’s heart center. This term derives from the Tibetan word “Vajra” which means “diamond” or “pure radiant diamond light.” Other spiritual traditions refer to it as the Christ Light, the Gayatri Light, the Sacred Heart, and the pure light within.
In Tibetan Buddhism the Vajra – or “pure radiant diamond light” – is said to “clear the mind of perceptions that obscure our awakened nature. It helps us embody the primordial purity of our ultimate, un-fabricated reality and recognize that we are an inseparable part of the jewel-net of the universe.”
The well known mantra OM MANI PADME HUM translates as “the jewel in the lotus”. The jewel here refers to the Vajra diamond in our heart center – the radiant seed of our luminous awareness. The lotus refers to layers of protection around this jewel – like the petals of a lotus flower – that protect and keep it pure. As we chant the mantra, the petals of the lotus begins to open and the jewel in the heart begins to shine. These are ancient mystical teachings to open and activate our heart light.
Evolutionary Skills
There are many serious challenges facing humanity at this time: climate change, species extinction, massive ecosystem destruction for economic gain, poverty, pollution, mental and psychological oppression, human migrations, war, trade imbalances…the list goes on.
We cannot solve these challenges at the level of consciousness from which they were created. While there may be technological solutions at hand, they can only be implemented with massive systemic, political and social change – and that can only happen if we raise the collective consciousness of humanity. Consciousness is changed by each person working to expand their own individual awareness.
This is how YOU can change the world and help humanity evolve – by activating your Heart Center. Anyone and everyone can do this.
These “gifts” are innate in our human genome — many people have them — yet they are not taught, supported or recognized as “real” in our common culture. I believe that developing these skills can greatly change our perception and understanding of life and human existence. Increased heart-consciousness brings awareness of our relationship with other species and life-forms on Earth, and expands our connection with the soul and quantum consciousness.
Activating the heart-center helps enhance these evolutionary skills and visa-versa. Directly working to develop these skills helps increase heart-consciousness. Just as we develop intellectual capabilities through progressive exercises in arithmetic, algebra and calculus, we can engage exercises to enhance our energetic and telepathic awareness.
So I encourage all those who have these skills to start teaching them to others. Teach, without self-importance, those that are interested and open to learning and evolving. Please reach out and find people and places to do so. There are many exercises and classes that will open these channels to you, which are available in many places these days. A list of resources and connections that we’ve found is available at the Resources page on this website.
While there is much attention these days on rapid technological advancements in medicine, artificial intelligence and nano-technologies, what we really need is a future-vision for our world that is based on humanity actually evolving and changing into a more enlightened species. Developing these skills is something anyone and everyone can do to help raise individual and collective human consciousness.
