Diamond Heart

I’m working on my final paper in World Religions class.  My topic is Diamond Heart.  I’m intrigued by the most characteristic practice in Diamond Heart, “Inquiry.”  The following is one example in various inquiries.
A good place to begin now is with an exploration into your past experience with inquiry.  Give yourself fifteen minutes to sit with and reflect on those questions and any associated insights that arise.  What kind of self-inquiry have you done?  Did you like doing it?  How do you see your concerns, your capacities, and your limitations in relation to inquiry?  How fixed is this knowledge about yourself?  How does that knowledge affect your experience of inquiry now and your openness to pursuing it further? (Almaas, 2002, p. 74)
