Essence love is the love of self. In Tanya we are instructed to have limitless, illogical love for every single Jew, beyond the external veneer, which is what distinguishes us one from another. But on a soul level, we all emerged from G-d's essence. Torah is all about prioritizing soul over body, and that is exactly what I must do to achieve this love.
