If indeed the Cosmic Diamond is some form of a residual
                                    body of a former Star or vastly sacred luminary then is must be some awesome psycomagnet of one truly sacred body. 
                                    Perhaps the intensity of the sacred emanations will qualify and intensify the psyco/ray energies reaching us here on Earth.

                                    A diamond that is almost forever  |   
                                    Twinkling in the sky is a diamond star of 10 billion
                                    trillion trillion carats, astronomers have discovered.  
                                    The cosmic diamond is a chunk of crystallised carbon,
                                    4,000 km across, some 50 light-years from the Earth in the constellation Centaurus. 
                                     It's the compressed heart of an old star that was once
                                    bright like our Sun but has since faded and shrunk. 
                                     Astronomers have decided to call the star "Lucy" after
                                    the Beatles song, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. 
                                     Twinkle twinkle 
                                     "You would need a jeweller's loupe the size of the Sun
                                    to grade this diamond," says astronomer Travis Metcalfe, of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, who led the team
                                    of researchers that discovered it. 
                                     The diamond star completely outclasses the largest diamond
                                    on Earth, the 530-carat Star of Africa which resides in the British Crown Jewels. 
                                     The huge cosmic diamond - technically known as BPM 37093
                                    - is actually a crystallised white dwarf. A white dwarf is the hot core of a star, left over after the star uses up its nuclear
                                    fuel and dies. It is made mostly of carbon. 
                                     For more than four decades, astronomers have thought
                                    that the interiors of white dwarfs crystallised, but obtaining direct evidence became possible only recently. 
                                     The white dwarf is not only radiant but also rings like
                                    a gigantic gong, undergoing constant pulsations. 
                                     "By measuring those pulsations, we were able to study
                                    the hidden interior of the white dwarf, just like seismograph measurements of earthquakes allow geologists to study the interior
                                    of the Earth. 
                                     "We figured out that the carbon interior of this white
                                    dwarf has solidified to form the galaxy's largest diamond," says Metcalfe. 
                                     Astronomers expect our Sun will become a white dwarf
                                    when it dies 5 billion years from now. Some two billion years after that, the Sun's ember core will crystallise as well, leaving
                                    a giant diamond in the centre of the solar system. 
                                     "Our Sun will become a diamond that truly is forever,"
                                    says Metcalfe.   | 
  
                                     
                                    The Rod of Initiation known as the "Flaming Diamond"
                                    and used by Sanat Kumara, the One Initiator, called in the Bible, the Ancient of Days. This Rod lies hidden "in the East"
                                    and holds the fire latent which irradiates the Wisdom Religion. This Rod was brought by the Lord of the World when He took
                                    form and came to our planet eighteen million years ago. CF 211. 
                                     
                                    The human being who has taken the highest of all our
                                    planetary initiations is termed "the diamond-souled" - the man who can perfectly transmit the pure white light and yet reflect
                                    equally all the colors of the rainbow, the seven colors of the chromatic scale. LOS 349.
                                     
                                    The mineral kingdom is governed astrologically by Taurus,
                                    and there is a symbolic relation between the "eye" in the head of the Bull, the third eye, the light in the head, and the
                                    diamond. The consciousness of the Buddha has been called the "diamond-eye." EPI 230.
                                     
                                    This diamond shaped formation of the interrelated energies
                                    is the prototypal pattern which lies behind the etheric network and is its final, conditioning influence as far as our Earth
                                    is concerned. It is hinted at in the reference to the "diamond soul" of which the Buddha is an exponent. This is necessarily
                                    a deep mystery but the correlation is interesting and guaranteeing. EA 605.
                                     
                                    But as these correspond mystically to the human Buddhas
                                    and Bodhisattwas, known as the "Manushi (or human) Buddhas," the latter are also designated "Anupadaka," once that their whole
                                    personality is merged in their compound sixth and seventh principles -- or Atma-Buddhi, and that they have become the "diamond-souled"
                                    (Vajra-sattvas),* the full Mahatmas. SD 52.
* Vajra -- diamond-holder. In Tibetan Dorjesempa; sempa meaning the soul, its
                                    adamantine# quality referring to its indestructibility in the hereafter. 
                                     
                                    It is for that reason that the truly illumined man
                                    and all who have taken the three highest initiations are always referred to as "the diamond soled"; they, in their totality
                                    constitute the "jewel in the lotus" - that twelve-petalled lotus which is the symbol and expression of the potency of the
                                    planetary Logos.  TEV 351.
                                     
                                    People who take upon themselves Great Service may be
                                    called "Heavenly Stones." In their striving they fill themselves with light. They pierce through the lower strata and contain
                                    within themselves diamond-adamant#. But it is not easy to be a diamond, and it is necessary to be affirmed in light in order
                                    to conquer darkness. Great Service knows no repose; by incessant vigilance is the spirit strengthened. FW2 201.
                                     
                                    Bestowing the treasures and the sacred objects, we
                                    warned the mother of the need of wanderings and at once we turned back crossing the same manger. Behind us the mother said,
                                    “See, my little one, thou art the king. Set this diamond upon the forehead of thy steed.” Cross. AY.
                                     
                                    The New Group of World Servers:
  
The group
                                    is and will be kept entirely subjective. Its members are linked telepathically, or they recognize each other through the quality
                                    of the work they are doing in the outer world and the inclusiveness of the note they sound. It is inspired from above by the
                                    souls of its members and the Great Ones, and is energized into activity by the need of humanity itself. It is composed of
                                    living conscious souls, working through coordinated personalities. 
                                     
                                    Its symbol is a golden triangle enclosing an even-armed
                                    cross with one diamond at the apex of the triangle. This symbol is never reproduced in form at all. It shines above the heads
                                    of all who are in the group and cannot be seen by anyone (not even a clairvoyant) except a group member, and then only if
                                    - for purposes of work - his recognition needs stimulation. The motto of the group is The Glory Of The One. TWM 351.
                                     
                                    Urusvati knows the significance of the moment that
                                    separates sleep from the waking state. This moment is called "the diamond of consciousness." During this transitory condition
                                    of consciousness man belongs simultaneously to both worlds—the physical and the subtle. If people perceived such conditions
                                    consciously, they would grasp more easily the idea of psychic energy. SMD1 120.
                                     
                                    It is correctly observed that a special vibration is needed for the realization of the diamond of consciousness. This
                                    vibration originates in pure aspiration, for which conscious knowledge is required. There is neither magic nor sorcery in
                                    the ability to perceive this beautiful moment. When man brings impressions from the Subtle World into his physical life he
                                    may also perceive the Fiery Gates. We intensify and deepen these diamond moments through a clear understanding of their significance.
