Ecstatic Poetry
Diamond in the rough diamond in the ashes there is ash on my forehead for Lent I smear vibhuti ash for Mahasivarathri Sai Shiv in ashes of my earthly, physical existence charred cinders of avarice, pride, vain pursuits a diamond... splendor of a trillion Suns Aurora of the Soul Imperishable, inextinguishable Star of the East The Everlasting Self dawns... ad Infinitum

Quite a mixture of myth. Carbon is left over from burning. When carbon is compressed to the point where it change structure. Diamonds are nothing more than highly compressed carbon. Hence the relationship in your poem.
