Teacher: Vedanta Aspioti

The Lataif is an introduction to the Essence Work or the Diamond Logos as taught by Faisal Muquaddam (www.diamondlogos.com), who originated this work together with A.H. Almaas.
The Essence Work enables us to dissolve and overcome blockages and obstacles on our spiritual path by understanding the psychological issues and structures underlying them. But unlike other psychological or therapeutic approaches it doesn’t stop at the work on emotional conflicts and personality issues. The Diamond Logos Work is based on the understanding that separation from essence is the main cause of our suffering.

This group will focus on retrieving our essence, the differentiated aspects of our being, called Latifas by the Sufis.

The Lataif (which consists of 9 Latifas) was transmitted directly to Faisal in Iran from the highest teacher in the Sufi order.

In this introduction we will cover the five main Latifas: The Latifa of will, the Latifa of strength, of peace, of love and of joy. Each Latifa is different, has its own colour, location, qualities and set of issues related to them. These issues relate directly to certain „holes“ in our system, where our essence was lost. This loss of essence was caused by traumatic experiences, ongoing emotional conflicts and the conditioning by parents and society in our childhood.

Today we often experience these “holes” as a deep emptiness, meaninglessness and loneliness, as a deep deficiency in our lives. But somewhere, deeply buried in our personality, remained a memory of what we used to be – a beautiful, precious, shining star! Which is nothing but our personal essence, our Higher Self. In order to birth our star again we need to activate the Latifas.

This approach works through presence, enquiry and understanding. Seeking truth through objectivity.

We will work with dyads, different meditations and therapeutic exercises, and we will also use the knowledge of the Enneagramm as well as music and dance to call on our essence. The powerful atmosphere of this group will be employed to work on and give space to personal issues and processes, as well.

Group experience is a prerequisite for participation in this seminar!
