[TWIST] Love for oneself

The Wisdom Times

One must learn to love oneself with a wholesome and healthy love,
so that one can bear to be with oneself and need not roam.
[Friedrich Nietzsche]

TWIST Comment: Love for oneself is one of the essential qualities one must develop. When we try this for the first time, we soon realize that it's not a very easy thing to do. We come in touch with the unplesant truths in the attic of the mind. Let it go. Accept the reality and do not deny anything that you encounter. By and by, the realization will help the mind transcend into a more plesant being. The acceptance will germinate a blissful union with oneself. When this love flowers within, it soon starts spreading the fragrance around. What happened inside as an experience prepares us for the world outside. A person capable of loving oneself soon becomes compassionate with the world - for what lies within lies without.
