A talk by John Diamond, M.D.
The way to find our truest selves is to practice detachment, and a key to this is the embracing of the concept of discernment, rather than judgment. Discerning rather than judging allows us to step outside the splitting of existence into good and bad, which in turn allows the acceptance of the “As Is,” and for us to view our lives in terms of choices that will get us closer or further to our life goals.
Dr. Jim Cairns (1914-2003)
The pioneering interviews which Dr. Diamond undertook with Australian politician Jim Cairns in 1968 have had lasting significance, and mark a highlight of Diamond’s career in Australia before his move to the US in 1972. Cairns (1914-2003) was a leading left-winger in Australia’s labour party. At the time of the interviews he was an MP for Lalor (a suburb of Melbourne) and had been appointed shadow minister for trade and industry by party leader Gough Whitlam.

Dr. Diamond links the underlying philosophy to acupuncture meridian problems, so finding that there in reality are no true problems – all are just denials of perfection.
