Page 10 - Sri Aurobindo and the Mother on Beauty

Painting by Vincent Van Gogh

There is a certain consciousness in which all things

become full of beauty and Ananda—what is painful

or ugly becomes an outward play, and becomes

suffused with the beauty and Ananda behind.

It is specially the Overmind consciousness of things—

although it can be felt from time to time on the other

planes also.

A great equality and the view of the Divine

everywhere is necessary for this to come fully.

Sri Aurobindo, CWSA 27: 702
