He who sees everything and everyone in the Self alone, and sees the Self in everything and everyone, hates not anything or anyone.

He who sees everything and everyone in the Self alone, and sees the Self in everything and everyone, hates not anything or anyone.

In the Bhagavad—gītā (15.7) it says:

mamaivāṁśo jīva—loke

jīva—bhūtaḥ sanātanaḥ

manaḥ—ṣaṣṭhānīndriyāṇi

prakṛti—sthāni karṣati

"An eternal portion of Myself, having become an individual embodied soul in this world, associates with the senses, including the mind, and activates them".

It is affirmed here that what you really are is an eternal portion of "Myself". That is, God lies in you... as you... your true and authentic nature is Divine...

The fact that the Self that lies in the depth of every living being and the Supreme and Absolute Self, named Brahman by the Adwaita Vedānta, are one and the same, is clearly supported by the revealed scriptures. As an example we can see the Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad (2.5.19): ayam ātmān Brahman... which means "this Ātman is Brahman" and in the same text (1.4.10) we find that most famous phrase: ahaṁ Bramāsmīti ... or ... ahaṁ Brahmāsmi... or "I am Brahman". We also find the great mahāvākya: tat tvam asi or "thou art That", in the Chāndogya Upaniṣad (6.8.7), in the dialogue between Uddālaka and his son Śvetaketu...

Finally I shall quote that magisterial phrase of the great Ādi Śaṅkarācārya... brahma satyaṁ jagan mithyā... or "Brahman is the reality, the world is false"...

The ego is like the air inside a bubble, which is in fact water... ocean... We are consciousness and blowing up and getting rid of the air, we realize ourselves as ocean of Pure Infinite Consciousness...

"Hates not anything or anyone"... he who has realized the Truth does not hate anything or anyone, because the realization of the true nature makes him conscious that apart from God, there is nothing here...

Everything and everyone are Divine, how can you hate, despise or reject anything or anyone?...

It is important to understand that in Hinduism we renounce the illusion, we renounce our fantasies and dreams, our egoism and vanity, but at the same time, we develop love towards anything and anyone, because the realization of God is to awaken to the fact this entire world is a manifestation and expression of the Pure Consciousness...

The truths expressed in this beautiful verse are also found in the holy Bhagavad—gītā (6.29—30), where Lord Kṛṣṇa says to Arjuna the warrior:

sarva—bhūta—stham ātmānaṁ

sarva—bhūtāni cātmani

īkṣate yoga—yuktātmā

sarvatra sama—darśanaḥ

yo māṁ paśyati sarvatra

sarvaṁ ca mayi paśyati

tasyāhaṁ na praṇaśyāmi

sa ca me na praṇaśyati

"Harmonized by yoga, the sage sees the Self lying in all beings, and all beings in the Self; He sees the same in everything and everyone... he who sees Me in everything and everything in Me, never parts from Me, and I never part from him".

"Hates not anything or anyone"... it doesn't say "loves everything and everyone", because hatred is what hinders love, obviously the absence of hatred allows the spontaneous flow of love toward everything and everyone... man's efforts, methods and techniques have to be directed to cause the disappearance of hatred, love cannot be created or fabricated through any method...
