It is natural and good to love oneself.
Only, you should know exactly what it is that you love.
It is not the body that you love, it is Life: perceiving, feeling, thinking, doing, loving, striving, creating. It is that Life you love, which is you, which is all.
Realize it in its totality, beyond all divisions and limitations, and all your desires will merge in it, for the greater contains the smaller.
Therefore find yourself, for in finding that you find all.
Everybody is glad to be. But few know the fullness of it.
You come to know by dwelling in your mind on “I am,” “I know,” “I love” - with the will of reaching the deepest meaning of these words.
—Nisargadatta Maharaj
I Am That
