The Green Latifa belongs to the Sufi concept of the “Lataif,” a series of essential qualities that embody the nature of our Self. Integrated into the Diamond Logos approach by Faisal Muqaddam, this quality represents one of the deepest aspects of our Essence, helping us reconnect with our authenticity.
The Latifa Verde is associated with the color Emerald Green and the qualities of Compassion and Loving Kindness.
This Latif allows us to recognize the deep kindness intrinsic to reality and supports healing and growth within us, fostering a deeper connection with the innate wisdom of the heart.
The type of love conveyed by this quality is one capable of embracing our deepest wounds and recognizing without condemnation the strategies and limitations of our ego. This quality is deeply connected to the heart and its openness. It helps us transform pain into a gateway to a deeper and more human understanding of ourselves.
Most of us, from childhood, have not learned to be compassionate and kind to ourselves. We were taught to be efficient, perfect, willing to sacrifice or fight, and rarely were we mirrored that compassionate love that makes us feel respected, showing kindness and patience for our own pace, errors, and needs as we learn about ourselves and the world.
The Green Latifa dissolves the rigidities of the ego that we have built to defend ourselves from pain, its judgments, beliefs, and it opens us to our most authentic sensitivity. With this quality, we feel accepted and capable of embracing our imperfections with love and kindness, creating an inner environment that fosters forgiveness, resilience, and a deeper empathetic connection with other human beings.
The quality of Green Latifa thus becomes a bridge between personal healing and a deeper connection with life and humanity as a whole.
This Latifa is located in the chest area, near the heart. This position reflects its connection to vulnerability and the capacity to love and embrace without judgment or discrimination.
Connecting with the Green Latifa is a transformative experience. This essence acts like a balm on psychological wounds, bringing a deep sense of calm and acceptance.
On a physical level, this soothing effect can be felt as a sensation of cool warmth, a simultaneously refreshing and calming effect. The heart opens to a sense of freshness and lightness, and we feel emotional barriers relax and soften.
The Green Latifa is an invitation to live with love and awareness, recognizing the intrinsic beauty of our humanity. In touch with the compassion, acceptance, and kindness of this quality, we discover that pain is not an obstacle but a gateway to a richer and more meaningful life.
Green Latifa and Inquiry
Green Latifa is also a valuable ally in the spiritual practice of inquiry (self-inquiry). During this process, barriers of judgment and non-acceptance often emerge toward what we encounter within our interiority. These resistances can become obstacles to self-discovery and connection with our Essence.
Thanks to its quality of Compassion and Acceptance, the Green Latifa helps us overcome these barriers, creating a safe space where we can explore with kindness and openness what manifests within us. Its energy promotes the release of inner rigidities and dissolves judgment, allowing us to meet our emotions and moods with openness and love. This approach supports the process of self-inquiry, making it more fluid and profound and facilitating access to new understandings of who we truly are.
