OSHO Meditation Moments: ACCEPT YOURSELF
Accept yourself –
the way you are
and that’s the hardest thing in the world,
because it goes against your education,
your upbringing, your culture.
You have been told from the very beginning
how you should be.
Nobody has ever told you
that you are good as you are.
Do not be obsessed with yourself,
but natural self-love is a must,
a basic phenomenon –
only then, from that basis, can you love someone else.
Accept yourself, love yourself.
No one else has ever been like you
and no one else will ever be like you.
You are simply unique, unparalleled.
Accept this, love it, celebrate it.
Just by celebrating it
you will begin to see the exceptionality of others,
the unparalleled beauty of others.
Love is only possible then
when there is a deep self-acceptance,
from the other, from the world.
Acceptance creates the environment in which love grows,
the foundation on which love flourishes.
