CALIBER FOR THE CONSTANT SELF AUTHORITY

Caliber is the ability to maintain the projected status and activity of our committed self. When we become our own directive authority. then the psyche can fulfil the self, and you can be happy. Normally we reject authority and initiate chaos out of an attempt to create individuality by difference rather than through integrity and wholeness.This meditation enhances your capacity for caliber, to hold and execute self-authority.
