Meditation & Self-Inquiry – August 31
So nice to see you all in our last meeting. We explored the White Latifa and its connection to will and confidence. The White gives us the strength to be present with what is real, rather than being caught in daydreams, fantasies, or collective expectations. It helps us step away from what society or family tells us we should be, and instead recognize: What is true for me? What do I really want? This brings a different kind of confidence — not the ego’s rigid determination or the reliance on others’ approval, but a relaxed, essential confidence. It is the willingness to try, to follow what matters, and to change direction when needed. Essential confidence is flexible, natural, and resilient. It lets us live authentically, pursue our gifts, and express ourselves without pretenses. By contrast, ego confidence often shows up as pushiness, giving up too quickly, or seeking constant validation. The White Latifa invites us to a confidence that is spacious, alive, and rooted in presence. Hope to see you next time
