Day 96: The Art of Self-acceptance – Message from Master Oneness

There are several types of acceptance that are interrelated and can contribute to a healthy and fulfilling life.

Here are some of the most common types of acceptance:

  1. Self-acceptance: This involves accepting all aspects of oneself, including one’s strengths and weaknesses, thoughts and feelings, and behaviors and actions. Self-acceptance is the foundation for all other forms of acceptance, as it allows individuals to be authentic and true to themselves.
  2. Acceptance of others: This involves accepting others for who they are, without judgment or criticism. It includes accepting others’ differences, beliefs, values, and behaviors, and treating them with respect and kindness.
  3. Acceptance of circumstances: This involves accepting one’s current situation, whether it be positive or negative. It includes accepting the present moment and being mindful of what is happening here and now, without trying to change or resist it.
  4. Acceptance of limitations: This involves accepting one’s physical, emotional, and mental limitations, and working within those boundaries to achieve personal goals and aspirations. It includes accepting that one cannot do everything and that it is okay to ask for help when needed.
  5. Acceptance of change: This involves accepting that change is an inevitable part of life and that it is necessary for growth and development. It includes accepting that change can be difficult and uncomfortable, but that it can also lead to new opportunities and experiences.

All of these types of acceptance are interrelated and can influence each other. For example, self-acceptance can lead to acceptance of others and circumstances, and acceptance of change can lead to acceptance of one’s limitations. Acceptance can also contribute to greater resilience, adaptability, and mental health, as it can help individuals navigate life’s challenges with greater ease and grace.

The foundation is self-acceptance: 

Self-acceptance is not only about embracing your strengths and talents, but also acknowledging your weaknesses and imperfections. It’s about being authentic, honest, and kind to yourself, and accepting all parts of who you are.

Self-acceptance is interconnected with other forms of acceptance in your life. When you accept your family, friends, and community, you create a supportive and inclusive environment that values diversity and differences. When you accept the challenges and obstacles in your life, you develop resilience and perseverance to help you grow and learn from your experiences. When you accept the possibilities and limitations around you, you can live in the present moment and make the most out of every opportunity.

Self-acceptance is the foundation of a fulfilling life. When you accept yourself, you cultivate self-love and self-confidence that can help you pursue your dreams and passions. You become more resilient and adaptable, which can help you navigate the ups and downs of life with grace and strength. You develop a sense of purpose and meaning that can inspire you to make a positive impact on the world.

Encourage yourself to practice self-acceptance every day. Be kind to yourself, celebrate your successes, and learn from your mistakes

Embrace your uniqueness and individuality, and appreciate the world’s diversity and richness. With self-acceptance, you can live life to the fullest, with joy, gratitude, and a sense of belonging.

The art of total acceptance is the practice of letting go of negative holdings and blockages by embracing and acknowledging all aspects of yourself and your life. Here are some: 

  • Acceptance is a process of acknowledging and embracing your current situation without judgment or resistance. It allows you to face your fears and negative emotions with openness and non-attachment.

Self-acceptance is the foundation of total acceptance. It means fully embracing yourself and your uniqueness, without comparing yourself to others or seeking external validation. Self-acceptance allows you to trust yourself, believe in your abilities, and pursue your dreams with confidence.

  • Lack of self-acceptance can lead to a lack of self-trust, which can undermine your motivation and limit your potential. When you don’t accept yourself, you may struggle with self-doubt, fear of failure, and a constant need for approval from others.
  • Self-acceptance is interconnected with your choices, behaviors, and performance. When you accept yourself, you are more likely to make choices that align with your values and goals, behave in ways that reflect your true self, and perform at your best without fear of judgment or criticism.
  • Accepting your family, relationships, and social system means acknowledging the reality of your connections and interactions with others. It means accepting that you cannot control other people’s behavior or attitudes, but you can choose how you respond to them with empathy, understanding, and respect.
  • Accepting the possibilities and impossibilities around you means recognizing that life is full of uncertainty and change. It means embracing the present moment and being open to new experiences and opportunities, while also being realistic about your limitations and boundaries.
  • Without self-acceptance, you may engage in unhealthy competition, which can be exhausting and unfulfilling. When you accept yourself, you are more likely to collaborate with others, celebrate their successes, and appreciate your own unique contributions to the world.

In summary, the art of total acceptance is a powerful practice that can help you let go of negativity, embrace your true self, and live a more fulfilling life. It involves self-acceptance, acceptance of others, and acceptance of the realities of life. By practicing total acceptance, you can cultivate inner peace, resilience, and a sense of purpose and meaning in your life.

Self acceptance and self esteem both looks same but not the same: 

Self-esteem is a subjective evaluation of one’s worth or value as a person, which is often based on external factors such as achievements, appearance, and social status. It can fluctuate depending on the feedback one receives from others, and it can be affected by the ups and downs of life.

Self-acceptance, on the other hand, is an unconditional form of self-evaluation that involves accepting oneself as a whole person, including one’s strengths and weaknesses, without judgment or comparison to others. It is not based on external validation or achievements, but on an internal sense of worth and belonging. Self-acceptance is a more stable and consistent form of self-evaluation that can withstand the challenges and changes of life.

So while self-acceptance and self-esteem may appear similar on the surface, they are different in their underlying processes and effects. Both are important for a healthy and fulfilling life, but self-acceptance may be more beneficial for long-term well-being and resilience.

The exercise for the self acceptance: 

  1. Write a letter to yourself: Write a letter to yourself as if you were writing to a friend who is going through a difficult time. Write down all the positive qualities you possess, as well as some of the challenges you’ve faced and overcome. Emphasize that you are worthy of love and acceptance, just as you are.
  2. Mindful self-compassion meditation: Sit quietly in a comfortable position, and focus on your breath. As you inhale, imagine you are breathing in self-acceptance, and as you exhale, imagine you are releasing self-judgment. Visualize yourself surrounded by love and acceptance, and repeat positive affirmations to yourself.
  3. Make a list of your strengths: Write down all the things you like about yourself, including your physical, emotional, and intellectual qualities. Focus on your unique qualities and what makes you special. Remind yourself of these strengths when you are feeling down.
  4. Identify and challenge negative self-talk: Listen to your inner voice and pay attention to any negative thoughts or beliefs you may have about yourself. Challenge these negative thoughts by replacing them with positive affirmations. For example, if you catch yourself thinking “I’m not good enough,” replace it with “I am enough just as I am.”
  5. Embrace your imperfections: Nobody is perfect, and it’s important to embrace your flaws and imperfections as a natural part of being human. Remember that your imperfections are what make you unique and interesting. Celebrate your quirks and differences, and try to let go of the need to be perfect all the time

6.    Stand in front of a mirror and observe your naked body objectively. Contemplate and embrace how the universe or God has created this masterpiece – it is not just your body, but a creation of existence. Do not compare yourself to others, and accept everything as it is. Say thank you to each of your body organs and body parts with total acceptance. This exercise can be a form of body acceptance meditation that helps to promote self-acceptance and positive body image. By focusing on gratitude and appreciation for your unique body, you can learn to accept and appreciate it just as it is, without judgment or comparison to others.

A thin line between acceptance and giving up, both looks same but not same: 

It is important to note that acceptance does not mean giving up. Acceptance can actually help you move forward in a positive direction, as it allows you to let go of resistance and focus on what is truly important. When you accept a situation, you can then begin to make positive changes or take action in ways that align with your values and goals.

Acceptance and giving up may appear similar, but they are fundamentally different. Acceptance involves acknowledging and embracing what cannot be changed, while giving up implies a sense of defeat or resignation. By practicing acceptance, you can find peace and contentment in the present moment, while still pursuing your goals and dreams.
