SOVEREIGNTY
Sovereignty
Sovereignty is often described as supreme authority — the power to govern,
to act independently, to determine direction without external interference.
But inwardly, sovereignty is quieter. It is not something claimed or defended. It is what remains when experience is allowed to be exactly as it is.

For a few moments, allow attention to soften.
Notice thoughts as they appear.
Not their content — only their presence.
Now notice sounds. Perhaps the room, the air, distant movement. Let sound arrive without effort.
Move gently back and forth — thought, sound, thought, sound.

Do both appear in the same space?
The same pace?
Without needing to be reconciled?
Nothing here needs to dissolve.
Nothing needs to be controlled.
Sovereignty is not separation — it is the absence of resistance.
When experience no longer has to belong to someone, authority naturally returns to itself.

Stay as long as feels natural.
Leave when you notice you never left.
