What is 'own Berkshire from the master himself'?
In recent years, Buffett has been more upfront about what makes Berkshire so remarkable and hinting at what those values might be.
This year Buffett did a “shout out” on Berkshire’s value.
He was quite direct that Berkshire’s plan to buy back shares at 120% of book value is nothing less than a not-so- subtle hint to own Berkshire from the master himself.

It sounds like Buffet is the "master". It should be read, "not so subtle hint (to own Berkshire) from the master himself."

It means that “the master himself” (meaning Buffett, who is a famously successful investor) is implicitly telling the market to “own Berkshire” (meaning to buy Berkshire Hathaway stock). By telling the market that Berkshire is undervalued, and that he thinks it would be a good deal for Berkshire to buy its own stock even at 20% above its current price, Buffett is telling the market “I think Berkshire’s stock price will go up, and because I’m one of the most successful investors in American history, you would do well to follow my advice.”
