“You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself”
— Swami Vivekananda
Simplified Meaning:
Believing in yourself means having confidence and trust in your abilities and judgment. If you don't have this self-belief, it's hard to truly have faith in something bigger than yourself, like God. Think of it like this: if you don't believe you can learn to ride a bike, it’s difficult to trust a coach who says you can do it. The coach's encouragement won’t mean much if you don’t first think, "Yes, I can try this." Similarly, having a strong belief in God often starts with recognizing your own worth and potential. By trusting in your own abilities, you open up to trusting in a higher power. For anyone, building self-confidence can help them grow spiritually because they feel more connected and open to faith.
