Hello everyone,

I'm new to the forums and this is my first post. I have just purchased Diamond Dowsing and I'm really enjoying the course so far. I received the Diamond Feng Shui course as a gift and I've been learning that as well. It's been quite an adventure, I must say.

I'd just like to chime in about making your own rods and rings.

This phrase comes to mind - "Change the way you look at things and the things you look at will change."

I know that these rods and rings are specifically designed and imbued with energies and intentions. I have not done Inner Diamond work but as an energy worker and practitioner who's done quite a bit of intention, healing and transformational work with others and myself, I've been really experiencing that everything - you, me, the computer, monitor, the rods and rings, are made up of the subatomic particles, photons and all sorts of quantum physical information. I noticed that when I work with clients and come from a place of amusement and that they're "just energy" and intend whatever it is they want to shift, their particles and photons in the form of their bodies respond and shift into the intended reality.

As taught in the film, The Secret, we're all energy. What I've been experiencing and getting over and over is that when I come from that space - that we're all energy, I make up what it is I want and/or want to transform and shift and allow it to happen... things happen. Intention. trust in your intention, and giving yourself permission and allowing it to happen are key. Yes, you are making it up, and how would it be if you trust in the power of that?

Yes, that was a little tangent, so I'm bringing it back to the rods and rings. What I'm suggesting is that what if I had a set of the original rods and rings and I got the bulk materials and with one hand on the original and one on my new set, I duplicate the energetic imprint through intention and trust. Know, believe and trust that my new set then carries the properties of the Marie Diamond infused set.

What do you all think?

I haven't done this yet but I just want to open the dialogue and create this as a possibility for an alternative to purchasing the extra rods and rings. I see how the power of intention absolutely creates amazing transformational shifts with other humans, so why not with copper rods and rings? It's all energy anyway. And of course, you can always muscle test for effectiveness.

I deeply appreciate all the work and craftsmanship that Marie Diamond and the Learning Strategies staff and team have put into these awesome courses and these tools.

I'm writing this post not to dishonor the Diamond process and tools or to dissuade anyone from getting the rings and supplemental rods, but to offer an opening that we are all powerful energetic beings who have the power to shift and transform anything through permission, intention and trust. Those of you who practice Spring Forest Qigong, I'm sure you know this. All this work and all the products Learning Strategies provide helps you to not only experience and realize your true greatness, but also fully own it and trust it.

So to provide an alternative response to Tuvi's question:

"These are quite expensive though, can we make them ourselves? And would the results be the same?"

My response is - Why not? And, what would it be like if the results were the same? (And, really allow yourself to go into that space of what that would be like).

And... have fun! :-)

With much gratitude and peace,
Pete
