Anandaletter ~ November 2022 The beauty : "Contemplate the beauty of the human" |
|
|
Friends, This fall, nature particularly fills us with wonder and invites us to revere beauty... And this feeling of wonder can become contemplation. We know that for those who are open to inner happiness, everything is beautiful. Our perceptions are the pure reflection of what we are inside. Life is pure Beauty, and it is by this pure beauty that everything seems beautiful to us, when we choose to offer our attention to the pure essence of the Living. Plato already said it: |

"But if someone comes to tell me that what makes a thing beautiful is either its brilliant color, or its shape or something else of the sort, I leave all these reasons there, which do not all make sense to me, and I simply, nicely and perhaps naively stick to this, that nothing makes it beautiful except the presence or the essence of beauty in itself or any other way or means by which this beauty is add to it; because in this way I no longer affirm anything positive, I only say that it is through beauty that all beautiful things become beautiful. This is, I believe, the surest answer that I can do to myself and to others. By holding on to this principle, I am convinced that I will never make a false step and that I can, in complete safety answer that it is by beauty that beautiful things are beautiful. Don't you believe that too?" Plato |

It is beautiful to realize this deep interaction between the fact of contemplating in all that is Beautiful, what is Good, Life, the Divine, and the plenitude that we receive thereby in all forms of beauty. And as Mickael Aivanhov reminds us: |
|
|
We know that the faculty of rejoicing is innate for those who make the choice to go beyond the ego which is always judgmental and seeks to criticize or complain, and to settle in the Heart, this space of pure beauty which is then reflected through all that is heard or perceived. Let us also quote the beautiful thought of Charles Pepin, this contemporary philosopher who reminds us that: |
|
|
Again and again, the Brotherhood reminds us of the deep meaning of this relationship with beauty that is Life: "Contemplate the beauty of the human. See, several levels in this contemplation. The Divine projected himself into creation to contemplate its glory and in this way it expands. Eternally, in the heart of the One, the Divine projects himself in these billions of faces, and each face, each uniqueness, is the reflection of the perfection of the Faceless. There remains the One beyond all faces, It remains beyond all faces And yet Magic is Beauty, is each face and each unit is the pure reflection of the perfection of the Faceless. This is the unique paradigm of relationship within incarnation" Christ Al Chaya |

In this so-called troubled time, shall we dare to be Guardians of Life, keeping our attention riveted on the beauty inherent in all things? Thus we can be ferments for the establishment on our planet of a civilization of happiness, abundance and harmony. Again, let us remember that attention gives life! In order to start the day well: in the Solar Yoga, Saint-Germain invites us to bless the Masters of the Sun each morning with the following formula: I bless Krishna - Power, I Bless Jesus - Love, Buddha - Wisdom, Padma Shambava -Joy Olympio - Beauty. Les us be a living blessing... |
