Augureye Express – Sovereign Souls
by Some days the gravity of depression makes just getting out of bed seem like a major accomplishment. It’s the certain knowing that the yesterday’s terrors still await; just beyond the veil of slumber, whether they be personal, national or worldwide.
Willing or not we arise each day nonetheless to face anew demons both known and unknown, and give it our best shot once again. Whether the demons are with us or against us matters little because we seem to have collectively chosen to forget that this isn’t how it’s supposed to be; this is not who we are.
We are gradually, grudgingly remembering something of our true selves, our true nature as sovereign souls but we don’t always recognize or trust our senses because the memories are filtering through generations of programming by those who wish to control and enslave us for fun and profit.
We arrive here with free will and precious little memory of before; and from the moment of our birth all that starts to fade away. We’re each given a name, race, religion, and nationality all of which is just a false identity imprinted upon us which we are expected to defend for the rest of your life. The system is so diabolical that it doesn’t even need to constantly keep the pressure on us to conform; we do that for them thru peer pressure, because the very worst thing is to be an outsider, belonging to no distinct group.
How about we take a closer look at what being a sovereign soul means so that we all go forward with the same definition. There is the common definition of sovereign which relates to a monarch, or ruler of a land which when applied spiritually to an individual simply means we are the “masters of our fate and the captain of our souls” as William E. Henley wrote in Invictus.*
The dictionary goes on to further define sovereign as possessing supreme or ultimate power, unlimited, unrestricted, boundless, unconditional and superlative in quality! Having sovereign power over our Self means that we enjoy the autonomy of independence and undisputed ascendancy. Or at least we are supposed to, but as I look around me I see damn few of us living our lives that way. In fact, modern society is designed and structured to prevent us from remembering who we really are and why we’re all here at this critical time in history.
Some might reply that every individual living their fullest potential as a sovereign soul wouldn’t work because everyone would be their own deity. Exactly! That is the expressed meaning in the greeting Namaste, “I salute the God within you.” It really is as simple as that. The only reason to complicate or obfuscate the matter is to trick us into giving our power away to others so that they can in turn control us, robbing us of our dignity as sovereign souls.
Our sovereignty as souls was stolen from us so long ago that we simply don’t remember anything else, which is why we tacitly accept what we have today as ‘reality’ when it is the farthest thing from it; and in the silence at the heart of things we know that. Those who seek our conformity and silent acceptance of things do not want us applying concepts such as unlimited, unrestricted, boundless, unconditional and autonomy to ourselves lest we become awake; and aware of our true heritage of being sovereign spirits. Sovereignty is the very essence of Freedom; and is exactly why we are not allowed to live according to our spiritual preferences.
