Beauty And The Beholder


Greetings, Gifted Reader.

Beauty is subjective. That, I’m sure, we can all agree on.

I might find purple to be a color I resonate to while you might find it repulsive. I might find the Pacific Ocean a lovely image to behold while you might not.

And, the saying that it doesn’t matter what someone looks like on the outside as long as they’re beautiful on the inside? Does that hold true for everybody? If that’s the case, then why did the Elephant Man experience such hardships merely trying to survive among those who found him physically revolting?
  
What would happen if you were locked up behind bars, away from the beauty of Nature? Could you summon her missing beauty to your mind and find peace nevertheless? It seems you would need to attain an extremely high level of consciousness in order to shift your mind from the mundane to a place of beauty. But it’s possible; so, how does one get there?

Some people swear by meditation, citing deep practices incorporating the philosophy of Buddha that they’ve cultivated for years.

For those who don’t care to embrace a religious doctrine, exercises that utilize visualization are a good way to alter consciousness.
