Customer Review: If you're at all curious about what A.H. Almaas is talking about in his many Diamond Approach books, get this one first. He lays out the fundamentals of the teaching about The Work.

Customer Review: I was very disappointed with this book. It was boring and did not have anything substantial to offer.
