BEAUTY
November 30, 2021
In this episode of “Inhabiting the World”, we are going to reflect on beauty.
Please note that we won’t be talking of beauty as pretty looks, glamorous allure, standardized features, we will explore beauty as a homecoming of the human spirit, as John O’ Donohue, the late Irish poet and philosopher, defined it.
Before diving into our subject though, I invite you to come back to your breath, to your body, in order to slow down, relax and reflect.
Please place your hands on your heart and let Khalil Gibran’s words reverberate within.
“Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.”
How does beauty appear in your inner world?
An entire branch of philosophy is dedicated to the study of beauty, a dimension of the human experience concerned with the nature and meaning of that which is beautiful. It is called aesthetics, derived from an ancient Greek word that means sensation, perception. The word beauty derives from the Vulgar Latin bellitas, the state of being pleasing to the senses. Bellitas, in turn, comes from bellus, beautiful in Latin, a derivation of bonus which means good. In the etymology of the word is implied the idea that what is beautiful is good.
