Keys to the Enneagram: How to Unlock the Highest Potential of Every Personality Type

More than just a tool to diagnose your personality type, the Enneagram was originally developed to help people find the ultimate freedom of consciousness and achieve spiritual liberation. A. H. Almaas brings us back to this original mission as he shares the essential keys that will help readers break free from the limitations and distortions of each type’s fixation—and to express their true spiritual nature in everyday life.

A. H. ALMAAS, the author of more than a dozen books, is the pen name of A. Hameed Ali, the originator of the Diamond Approach to the realization of our true nature. Since 1976 he has guided individuals and groups through his school of inner work, the Ridhwan School, which has branches in California, Colorado, and Europe. His most recent books are Love Unveiled, The Alchemy of Freedom, The Power of Divine Eros, The Unfolding Now, and Runaway Realization.

Almaas's teaching, which originated in his own experience of personal transformation, is informed by his grounding in spiritual traditions (e.g., the Gurdjieff Work, Sufism), depth psychology (he has a PhD in psychology), and scientific inquiry (MA in physics). Respected teachers and writers who have praised his work include Ken Wilber, Jack Kornfield, John Welwood, Helen Palmer, and Sherry Ruth Anderson.
