Session access details.
Our July, October and December weekends will be a deep dive into the quality of personal love. Personal love, or the pink essence, is a unique love, it is your personal love. It is one of the ways our true nature expresses itself. Love that is personal is needed in life, and on the path to the realisation of our Essential nature. This love is basically the magnetism between our soul and its beloved, which is experienced as a sweet pleasurable liking and appreciation for what we love, and for our deepest nature. This personal love, is a part of our birthright to know and realise, yet often lies buried or hidden under all kinds of obscurations and veils from our personality and history.
Through the practice of being present in the immediacy of our experience, and exploring and opening up via Diamond Inquiry™, we can see and understand more about how we came to have the beliefs, ideas, and convictions in our personality.
We can see that these are barriers to direct and immediate knowing, expressing and allowing of this quality to infuse our personal life, our love of truth, and our view of reality as a whole with sweetness, love and appreciation.

New Students
If this is your first weekend with DHUK, you’ll be contacted by Penny Kennington to arrange a meeting with a teacher before the weekend to give you some orientation and to answer any questions that you have. New students will not join the small groups, but will have a lunch meeting with the teachers on Sunday.
