3.9.42

aham ātmātmanāṃ dhātaḥ preṣṭhaḥ san preyasām api /
ato mayi ratiṃ kuryād dehādir yat-kṛte priyaḥ //

42. O Brahma, I am the soul of all the Jivas, I am the most beloved of all beloved things; and hence a man should try to find delight only in Me; for, only on My account the body and all its belongings become the object of love.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
