I'll have to think about the rest of your post, and I do agree with this part, but I think it's incomplete. Since we know from Ra that other-selves are also self, and in this illusion we all mirror to one another, it's common to hear people say that whatever is happening in the outer is actually happening in self and must be dealt with on that level.
But, isn't that negating the other side of the coin? We DO still mirror to other-selves too - they DO exist in this reality. To the point in the Law of One tenets given by Ra, it doesn't just say to gaze in a mirror and see the Creator, but also to gaze at other-selves and see the Creator. This seems to indicate that other-selves do truly exist, and to always refer back to self, with never any regard for other-self, seems to negate the importance of other-selves.
In other words, I'm not saying your statement is false. It is clearly true. It IS about acceptance of self. But it is also about acceptance of other-self too. It seems to me that both must be accepted. Ultimately they are the same, but from within the veil, we do still have the illusion of separation so it seems to be a form of denial to pretend it doesn't exist. Until we get to the point where we see through the illusion completely, it seems to be adding another level of illusion, to negate the reality and importance of other-selves and what they have to offer. Surely there is some importance there, else there wouldn't be an illusion in the first place.
