Beauty
From AnthroWiki
Beauty is, according to spiritual science, the revelation of a spiritual entity in the outer sensual appearance.
„The beautiful is a manifestation of secret laws of nature, which would have remained eternally hidden from us without its appearance.“
– Johann Wolfgang Goethe: Maximen und Reflexionen[1]
This is especially true for human beings themselves. To strive for beauty is therefore one of the three fundamental virtues of the initiate, along with wisdom and goodness. The expression of one's facial features, the gracefulness of one's movements, one's posture and one's entire outer conduct of life should thereby become more and more the expression of one's own inner being.
