"When a man with love in his heart is selfish, his joy overflows, transforming selfishness into a contagious happiness that uplifts all around him. True unselfishness arises from the delight of loving oneself first."
According to Osho, when a man with love in his heart is selfish—centered in his own bliss—his joy overflows; he naturally helps others become happy because happiness is contagious and our lives interwoven. Such 'selfishness' births real unselfishness: service done from delight, not duty or deception. Loving oneself first, he radiates a fragrance of love that uplifts his surroundings and makes shared happiness possible.
If you joyfully take care of your own heart, your happiness spreads to others, so being 'selfish' with love actually helps everyone.
