Episode Details

Listen to episode 1146 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to See the Beauty in Life. Edited and adapted from The Realisation of Life by Rabindranath Tagore, published in 1916.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt:The Upanishads have said that all things are created and sustained by an infinite joy. To realize this principle of creation, we have to start with a division — the division into the beautiful and the non-beautiful. The apprehension of beauty has to come to us with a vigorous blow to awaken our consciousness from its primitive lethargy, and it attains its goal by the urgency of the contrast. 

At first, we detach beauty from its surroundings. We hold it apart from the rest. But in the end, we realize its harmony with all. Then the recognition of beauty in things great and small become easy, and we see it more in the unassuming harmony of common objects than in things startling in their singularity.
