“As you learn to accept the various aspects of yourself — the positive and the negative ones — and thus unify yourself, so will you feel in exactly the same way about your surroundings. And you will know that all people — whether you like them or not, approve of them or not, whether they are developed beings or not — are aspects of the whole just as you are an aspect of the whole. You will also know that what is negative, either in you or in others, is an aspect of the same that is positive. You will cease being alienated from and frightened by it. But you must first begin to cease being alienated from and frightened by whatever exists in you. For the more you fear aspects of yourself, the more this fear must be projected into outer life, onto other people and outer conditions. The only way you can cease being afraid of life, other people, of death is when you meet what you are most afraid of in yourself. This is the path. This is the path!” (PL #203)
