Ask Osho!

What does it mean to love myself?

Synthesized from Source definition

"To love yourself is to dissolve the false personality through meditation, allowing your true self to emerge, where love naturally radiates from within."

According to Osho, to love yourself is not to pamper the ego, but to meditate until the false personality falls away and your real self is known. In the silence of no-mind, love blooms by itself—first within, then toward all. Love becomes your very nature, unaddressed radiance. So, be yourself through meditation; avoid life‑negative conditioning.
Sit quietly, drop your pretend self, and your real you will naturally feel loving—and that warmth then spreads to everyone and everything.
Why this matters practically
- Stops mistaking ego-boosting for genuine self-love
- Cultivates inner peace, improving relationships and reducing neediness
- Turns love into a steady way of being rather than a fragile attachment
