Self Love || Acharya Prashant
I’m depressed for existential reasons, so I go for balpuri. What kind of solution is this? I am being pushed to marry, so I decided to take a bath. It feels great to be under the shower. Problem solved. And after the bath, I feel sleepy, so I’ll snore for 3 hours.
Problem totally solved. What kind of solutions are these? Somebody was saying, when depressed, brush your teeth. Special toothpaste with anti-depressants. That’s the issue with the human condition. You are entitled to make all the lowly decisions. Please don’t do that.
Love yourself enough to give yourself the highest. Don’t settle for anything lower or lesser. When you have real selfrespect, then you give yourself the highest, don’t you? You won’t give yourself some cheap thing. You must have self- loveve which is equivalent to having love for the highest.
