RECAP: You Missed It: The Score of Becoming

You missed it.

Not a recap. Not a review.
A moment. A threshold.
The culmination of six months of deep listening, bold naming, and sacred presence.

On June 6, the sixth and final session of the Symphony ’77 Inquiry Circle ended. No fanfare. Just breath. Reflection. And an unmistakable sense that we had completed something.
We didn’t end with answers. We finished with rhythm.

The Final Movement

Titled “The Score of Becoming,” the gathering offered more than reflection. It invited us to inhabit the architecture we’ve been building all along. Every concept, every question, every meditation returned—not to be rehashed, but to be lived.

The session didn’t just review what came before. It showed how those months of inquiry had become a method, stillness had become a strategy, and clarity had become structure.

No one rushed to summarize. Instead, we rested in what had been composed. Layer by layer. Voice by voice.

From Fragments to Form

Over six sessions, we explored the conditions we live inside and the truths that live inside us. We examined the systems that extract and distort—and the ancestral rhythms that ground and renew.

In January, mortality became a meditation on legacy.
February named fascism not as an anomaly, but as American rhythm.
March reclaimed AfricanAmericanism as living resistance.
April dismantled the illusion of the American Dream.
May introduced the Liberation Matrix—a structure for sovereign living.
And now, in June, we gathered all the threads into a symphonic practice: the Score of Becoming.

Practicing Radical Awareness

Rather than framing awareness as soft or passive, we lifted it up as radical—from the root. Awareness, not as observation alone, but as intervention. A disciplined, layered mode of inquiry capable of piercing illusion and restoring authorship.

We returned to a five-fold practice:
– Recognize what’s happening internally and externally
– Observe the process of awareness itself
– Ask who—or what—is doing the observing
– Rest in awareness beyond identity
– Let the distinctions dissolve

At the heart of the work: presence as power. Not a trick of breath or posture, but a full-bodied refusal to be reduced.

The Frameworks Now in Hand

Four main pillars carried us through this cycle:

Meditation as a Mode of Investigation
A practice of precision, not escape. A method for investigating the self and systems alike.

Private Equity State Capitalism (PESC)
A name for the machine that financializes life, masks domination, and erodes the public good. With it came a 6-Fold Resistance Path: unmask, reclaim, interrupt, fortify, build, transcend.

AfricanAmericanism
A path walked in rhythm with legacy—24/7, 365. Testify. Unshackle. Walk in power. Live beyond limits.

Meditativism
Where awareness becomes architecture. A way of seeing, feeling, investigating, and moving the world through the body, breath, and story.

We didn’t offer these frameworks as final answers. Each was a door—opening toward deeper practice, wider clarity, and a more liberated imagination.

Looking Ahead

Symphony ’77 ends here.
Six sessions. Six movements. One unfolding composition.

July marks a shift—not an end, but a transformation.

The next expression of this work arrives as
The Meditativist’s Inquiry Circle.

Instead of monthly First Friday sessions, future circles will happen on demand.
No fixed calendar. No automatic rhythm.
Only what the moment requires.
Only when the calling is clear.

To stay in rhythm, subscribe to The Meditativist’s Journal on Substack. Invitations, reflections, and practice tools will flow from there—intentionally, intuitively, and at the right timing.
