We don’t begin the spiritual journey by escaping life—we begin by entering it more fully. The Latifa are not abstract concepts or distant ideals. They are intimate, alive, already moving in us. Strength that doesn’t need to pretend. Joy that doesn’t depend on success. Will that rises from depth. Compassion that softens even the hardest edges. Clarity that cuts through confusion. These are not qualities to strive for—they are our original nature, waiting to be remembered. When we begin with the Latifa, we’re not trying to kill the ego or abandon the world. We are gently resourcing the self so it can begin to relax, trust, and allow something deeper to live through it. This is not transcendence. This is embodiment. This is the beginning of real transformation.
