Roaring Truth Teller Fearless Teacher Compassionate Awakener Trailblazing Author
Unshackle your mind and claim your spiritual birthright of freedom, wholeness, and joy through the perennial wisdom of ancient yoga:
There’s a reason that the Vedas, a 5,000-year-old collection of celebrated verses from ancient India, have given rise to several world religions and influenced Western thinkers from Emerson to Ram Dass—they provide us with a uniquely accessible and effective path to liberation and sovereignty.
With Sovereign Self, Acharya Shunya shares a groundbreaking guide to the wisdom of these classic texts so that each of us may emancipate ourselves from restrictive belief systems and discover our true nature—that which is always whole, joyful, and free.
As the first female lineage holder in a 2,000-year-old line of spiritual teachers, Shunya provides a rare opportunity to receive these authentic teachings from a genuine Vedic master—one with a distinctly down-to-earth, feminine flavor who never lets us forget that our humanity is to be embodied and enjoyed.
​You too can wake up from being a “sleepwalker” and find authentic freedom, everlasting joy, and unshakable sovereignty
Filled with hidden insights and engaging guidance, Sovereign Self will help you awaken and recognize your potential to be joyful, resourceful, abundant, limitlessly expansive, and sovereign.
My life was not always sovereign...
For a while, my mind was plunged in the depths of darkness, devastated from sorrowful relationships, despairing from the sudden deaths of people I loved, and disheartened by the shocking curve balls that life can throw our way.
Yet despite everything—even losing my sense of worth for a short time along the way—here I am. I feel the power, wholeness, and joy of being alive! These are not mere words. This is my visceral experience of my own self-worth after I regained the sovereignty to write my life script anew. I don’t regret my learning curve, my mistakes in the past. I am proud to be mentally and spiritually sovereign today, and you can be too.
I am confident, that if you read my book, you too will finally begin leading the life you were always meant to lead…
Absolute authority over your inner world is your spiritual birthright. This book will give you the tools to reclaim a sovereign life. No matter what set of limitations and restrictions you currently face, self- imposed or societally imposed, they will fall away.
​
Your mind will become fearless, bold, and unassailable....
You will greet your same old life as if you were meeting it for the first time.
​
A summon to your soul that deserves authenticity, love, respect and more!
I am confident that just I was inspired by the wisdom of Vedas, Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita to shed limiting patterns and shackling attachments that were holding me back, you too will be able to tap into the wisest, boldest and most authentic and fearless version of yourself!
