REAL SOVEREIGNTY
by Ghis
The dictionary is clear and unambiguous when it comes to the definition of the word
SOVEREIGNTY1. It is the supreme authority, with an absolute power to command obedience.
Sovereignty is related to a partnership between two entities: one who commands (called Authority
in this text) and another who obeys (called Obedience). At first, the power seems to be on the
side of Authority but this power is conditional to the good will of Obedience. If Obedience
refuses to submit, Authority has no power. Thus, Obedience is the one who holds the real power.
She can choose to use or give up this power.
Authority perpetually lives in the fear of loosing her false power. That is why she uses different
strategies in order to persuade Obedience to give up her real power. Authority buys the good will
of Obedience with rewards, the celebrated P-A-P carrots – Power, Money, Prestige. She even
promises an upcoming and supreme carrot – a place in heaven after death. The reward system
works very well and guarantees the obedience of the great majority of the population.
For a rebellious minority, Authority uses other stratagems. She guarantees their submission
through punishments, the long-feared E-D-E sticks – Exclusion, Dispossession, Elimination
(prison, psychiatry, death). To this is added the dreadful possibility of a supreme stick – eternal
suffering in hell. These coercive methods work wonders on Obedience who abdicates, gives up
her power and accepts to submit herself to Authority’s will. This situation brings on a permanent
war of power between Authority and Obedience. The most fearful one loses. In the end, both end
up dying of fear and exhaustion.
Absolute power is required in order for sovereignty to exist. It cannot depend on anyone else. No
higher authority can have precedence on its absolute power. When power is relative and limited,
there can be no sovereignty.

If there is separation between Authority and Obedience, there can be no sovereignty since
one is dependant on the other and both their powers are limited. This duality brings on
division, conflict, disorder… and death.
•
However, if there is fusion of Authority and Obedience, sovereignty becomes possible,
because Authority and Obedience are ONE. Duality has been replaced by indivi-duality
(indivisible duality). This unity generates communion, harmony, order, peace… and
immortality. Thus, we can conclude that:
REAL SOVEREIGNTY IS INDIVIDUAL AND INTERNAL

It is important not to confuse Autonomy and Sovereignty. Autonomy is the capacity, for a machine, an organism or
an individual, to work on their own, without depending on the outside. This type of independence is variable and
limited in space and time, whereas true sovereignty is supreme and, thus, unlimited, immortal and immutable.
Only an individual of the human species, a person, can be sovereign. This eliminates all the false
sovereignties of gods and goddesses, Allah, Yahweh, God, kings and queens, popes, dalai-lamas
and other spiritual leaders, the United Nations, continents, nations, countries, homelands, the
Constitution, the Bible, the Koran, the Gospels, all laws, etc. All these so-claimed sovereigns
preside over hierarchies that operate through the separation between Authority and Obedience.
Consequently, these sovereignties are illusory and deceitful, and inevitably bring on disorder and
death.
True sovereignty is internal. It is found in the soul, the individualisation of the One Being that is
the creative force of the whole universe. The soul is the supreme authority whose law is
recognized and obeyed by the sovereign person. The soul never makes mistakes. She represents
truth and guarantees justness, order and peace. She is the true internal sovereign. Thus, we can
affirm that:
REAL SOVEREIGNTY IS UNLIMITED, IMMORTAL, IMMUABLE
The sovereign person remembers who she really is, both the creatrix2 and the creature, both
Authority and Obedience. Her soul commands and her body obeys. She is under the full
governance of her soul. She bathes in peace and vibrates with joy. The war for power is over. The
soul governs and the person acts as her conscience dictates, for the love of her true self. The ego
disappears a little more, each time a fear is healed. The person’s behaviour becomes that of a
creative being, omnipotent and responsible, the guarantor of all that happens in her life.
The sovereign person is conscious of her true identity – the creative spirit inherent to all created
matter – and she behaves as such. She abandons her old ways of living. She stops seeing herself
as a poor creature, the daughter of an external creator, the god of death. She ceases her
submission to external laws, the laws of death. She no longer gives her power away to external
authorities, the servants of death. She lets go of all the teachings found in sacred books – Bible,
Koran, Vedas, Torah – that perpetuate death. She no longer belongs to a family, a homeland, a
country, a religion, a race, a tradition, a culture or a planet, since they all represent the limits of
death. She refuses to venerate a science that teaches the lies of death.

Creatrix: feminine of the word “creator”, so as to celebrate the feminine principle of “spirit”, which always comes
before and creates the masculine principle of “matter”.
