About this Quote

In this quote, Mikhail Bakunin is stressing the severity and maturity required in worshipping God. He argues that one can not approach the concept of God with ignorant or simplistic beliefs, however need to rather want to let go of their own personal desires and human nature. This suggests compromising one's own liberty and uniqueness in order to fully devote oneself to the worship of God. Bakunin thinks that true praise needs a brave and selfless attitude, instead of a childish or selfish one. By renouncing our own liberty and humankind, we can totally send ourselves to the divine and experience a much deeper connection with God.
