Every individual is a vicegerent of God on Earth. Establishing divine governance begins with self-governance. Humans are entrusted with physical and intellectual capabilities as a divine deposit. The ‘self’—whether termed ego, soul, or *ruh*—is the actual vicegerent on this body, responsible for aligning one's existence, emotions, desires, and aspirations with God’s commands. This personal implementation of divine principles is the foundational requirement of vicegerency for every person.
