56 • A Reservoir of Infinite Power
The pure soul is, indeed, omnipotent. This power procreates, in a fraction of time, the universe with its past, present and future in all different forms. Omnipotency is a timeless energy of the soul. When a person meditates on this permanent and omnipotent nature of the soul, this property blossoms by its own unique seminal powers and its existence in infinite properties of the soul and procreates the soul in its purer form ultimately leading to Moksha.
7. Supreme Sovereignty (Prabhutva) - Here is a divine story of the pure soul whose sovereignty is indivisible and unconquerable by anybody. It is the story of unfolding of supreme quality of Godhood that lies dormant in any individual. Supreme sovereignty, Godhood or absolute independence are synonymous. Once a person realises that everyone can achieve that supreme position of absolute sovereignty and that such power lies within oneself, there is an unprecedented transformation of the soul. Such sovereignty is not bestowed by anybody on the self. It is its own power that lies hidden in oneself. If a person contemplates on the power of other objects (other than self), it leads to feelings of attachment or detachment resulting in ignorance of the power of the self, karmic bondage and eternal existence of lower forms of life. Once a person turns inward and contemplates on the nature of the pure soul, this power manifests on its own and a person begins to destroy the cycle of re-births.
Supreme sovereignty implies the following: 1. Supreme eminence meaning unblemished prominence
in the universe, 2. Indivisible implying unconquerability by anybody else, 3. Absolute independence i.e., completely ruled by
oneself,
