“The Homing Thought”

There is a rock that each of us can have all the time throughout our lives. That rock is what I call the "homing thought."

“All I Want to Know”

All I want to know of a composer, a performer – any artist – is: How close has he come to Knowing his Mother of Love, his Muse?

“A Different System of Aesthetic Criticism”

I believe that the purpose of all artistic endeavors, and, for that matter, every activity, should be to enhance Life Energy: to encourage the Embracing of Life – enthusiastically, passionately, wholeheartedly and gratefully.

"The Two Wheels on Dry Land" is the creative activity that will most readily raise the Life Energy of the person. For many years this has been a key part of Dr. Diamond's approach to using creativity to enhance the lives of sufferers.

“When You Know That the Artist Was Inspired”

When you Know that the artist was Inspired, and therefore that his art was Aspiration, then – whatever it may appear to be – it is an Instance of God, a gift from the Spirit World.

And every, every act on Earth – and Beyond – is such an Instance.

“To Know Our Mother’s Soul”

It is imperative, I believe, for us to see, to Know, our mother’s Soul, her Godliness, her Buddha-Nature. Only then can we Know our own – and so, at last, be relieved of our anguish.

This does not mean that our mothers need to change but only our inner image of her.
