The path of beauty

It is beauty that reminds us
to go within.  It is beauty that reawakens us when we nod off at the wheel of life.  It is beauty that reconnects us to our soul, our spirit, our divine essence.

Beauty is the reminder that we are not the lives we lead, but the Divine, living a divine dream, experiencing the play of life, of form.

It is not an accident that every culture holds beauty in high regard, however different their interpretation of beauty may be.  It is because beauty is transcendent.  It is of the soul: it is a bridge to our own souls.

Beauty is our essence.  Our divinity.  It is a reflection of who we truly are, our magnificence forgotten, hidden by the veils of life, yet glimpsed out of the corner of our eye, reminding us that we are more than the mundane.

When we notice beauty, we are indeed transported... uplifted.  In that moment, an surge of divine energy flows into us, softly blessing us, gently expanding us to accommodate yet more of our own divine essence.

That is why beauty is a pathway to the Divine, however we conceive of Her.  That is why people meditate on beauty, to open up that pathway in their daily lives.  That is why beauty touches us deeply, for in touching beauty, we touch our divinity.
