THE TEACHER: Christine Dveirin was invited to Auckland to establish the Diamond Approach New Zealand group in 2008. She has been a student of A.H. Almaas for many years and it was her invitation that in 1987 first brought the work to Hawaii where it is now well established with three on-going groups. She has worked with groups in Holland and Wales and teaches in the current Ridhwan seminary training.
In New Zealand she is assisted by another certified teacher, Lisa Barrett

"Almaas is one of the most significant voices for a new and remarkably integrated spiritual vision..I recommend it to anyone interested in living the life of the spirit.....I have had a life changing experience working with Hameed Ali and the Diamond Approach for the past 26 years. The Diamond Approach is among the most integrated and visionary teachings of body, heart and spirit that I know."
Jack Kornfield, Ph.D., author of A Path with a Heart
