Discover True Beauty
In the world of forms a violation of Beauty is as great a fault
as a violation of Truth in the world of ideas. For Beauty is the
worship Nature offers to the supreme Master of the universe;
Beauty is the divine language in forms. And a consciousness
of the Divine which is not translated externally by an under-
standing and expression of Beauty would be an incomplete
consciousness.
But true Beauty is as difficult to discover, to understand
and above all to live as any other expression of the Divine; this
discovery and expression exacts as much impersonality and re-
nunciation of egoism as that of Truth or Bliss. Pure Beauty is
universal and one must be universal to see and recognise it.
O Lord of Beauty, how many faults I have committed
against Thee, how many do I still commit....Give me the perfect
understanding of Thy Law so that I may not again fail to keep
it. Love would be incomplete without Thee, Thou art one of its
most perfect ornaments, Thou art one of its most harmonious
smiles. ...
Thou art not at all what a vain people think Thee to be,
Thou art not at all attached exclusively to this or that form of
life: it is possible to awaken Thee and make Thee shine in every
form; but for that one must have discovered Thy secret. ...
O Lord of Beauty, give me the perfect understanding of Thy
Law, so that I may no longer fail to keep it, so that Thou mayst
become in me the harmonious consummation of the Lord of
Love.
