Diamond inspires you to live according to the universal truths that are given in the ethical principles of all religions. It inspires you to honor all life as it has been created, and as it is being expressed in all life forms. The Universal Truths are infinite. When you live with respect and kindness for all others, you will feel a continued con- with the Light of Truth. Knowing that you are always connected with the Light of Truth can give you the strength to act on the beliefs that you hold sacred, even when others oppose you. There are many who do not understand that the consequences of their selfish actions affect themselves and others even after they have left the Earth Plane. It is going to take your world a period of time before all will truly understand what I stand for.

Those of you on the Earth Plane who are learning about the accumulation of material possessions have much to learn from me. To possess me you pay a high monetary price. You have an opportunity to learn that trying to possess anything only blocks you from creatively receiving life-force energy. Those of you who lack the monetary resources to purchase me are learning something as well. You are learning that you can be in a state of non-attachment to things and still receive from me as you read these words. There is a need for an energy flow coming in and going out of your lives. You are given time and space to utilize your material energies, and then you must release your mental connection with those energies, whether or not their physical presence is released. In this way you will learn the constant presence of the Light of Truth in the ebb and flow of physical form.

The diamond is a friend of humanity; one reveals the other and vice versa. The diamond symbolizes perfection, illumination-even ecstasy. It also represents divine love. This stone gives us vitality and encourages us toward purity. 

Paradoxically, a diamond is the ideal stone for the ascetic who has given up on material wealth. It is the ideal object for diligent contemplation and deep meditation. The fact that it must be cut to reveal its beauty equates to the inner, spiritual beauty of the human being.

Diamond is neither hot nor cold, it is neutral. Of the seven rays of the rainbow, it represents the indigo color.

The cutting also symbolizes our resistance to challenges and adversity. It also corresponds to the cutting of fruit trees to make them pro- duce the best fruit.

Therapeutic Uses

There's no need to own a high-priced diamond. The tiniest little diamond will be effective-as much so as all the Crown's diamonds.

Diamonds combat the aging of the cells and strengthen vital energy. They cure constipation, urine retention, and in general, all organs concerned with removing waste from the body. Applying a diamond at the kidneys will accelerate the evacuation of stones. Do not leave a diamond on the abdomen too long. It's best to proceed in short sessions of 5 minutes. The effect will persist after it has been removed from the area. Jewelry can be safely worn on the hands and chest. Its power can become bothersome if it is worn at the navel level; watch out for this type of jewelry, especially if it is accompanied by gold.

The diamond is very beneficial for epileptics. It should be avoided in cases of paranoid psychosis, depressive manias, and obsessive jealousy. As a general rule, diamonds correspond to people who have worked on themselves. Given its purity, as with rock crystal, it can actually harm nasty individuals dominated by crude appetites. Too often, greedy, rich people who have acquired expensive diamonds have experienced the consequences of their actions. This has led to the belief that diamonds, or at least some of them, are "bad luck charms." Nothing could be farther from the truth; the so-called curse is only the result of the misalliance of an individual's low-level mental state with this symbol of purity and grandeur.
