A.H. Almaas (Hameed Ali) is the founder of the Ridhwan School, co-founder of the Diamond Approach, and an author of 20 books on spirituality and personal development. Hameed reached a turning point in his life and destiny when working on his PhD in physics at the University of California in Berkeley that led him to inquire into the psychological and spiritual aspects of human nature rather than the physical nature of the universe.

Departing from academia, he embarked on a rigorous journey of self-discovery, applying scientific methodology to the exploration of consciousness and the human experience. His quest for understanding led him to study with various teachers, engage in extensive reading, and conduct a detailed examination of his own consciousness. This deep introspection aimed to uncover the essence of human qualities like compassion, strength, will, joy, and peace.

Hameed’s process of exploration led to the creation of the Ridhwan School and the development of the Diamond Approach, alongside Karen Johnson. His literary contributions, including works like Nondual Love: Awakening to the Loving Nature of Reality, Keys to the Enneagram, Love Unveiled, and The Unfolding Now, offer profound insights into realizing one's true nature through presence and the essence of the awakened heart.
