Lailah Gifty AkitaAccept only the divine self.
About This Quote
This is an example of the Hindu idea that the divine self is the real self, the true self, and nothing more than that. As it stands now, most people do not accept only the divine self, they accept only the part of themselves that they think they are supposed to be, instead of accepting all of themselves. The divine self is not like that. It’s not a part or a shadow or anything like that; it is everything that you are.
