The power of beauty lies in the provocation of proportion. The transcendentalist Ralph W. Emerson stated "The love of beauty is chiefly the love of measure or proportion". There is an art to living, development and achievement. Beauty captures the imagination because it is in proportion to the mind which perceives it. Aspiration to beauty is dependent chiefly upon two variables then.
1)the proportion of the artist's imagination 2)the proportion of the beholder's thoughts.
The educated mind understands the concept of measurements at greater length than the uneducated mind. Therefore individual beauty becomes appreciated at heights greater than its peers according to the proportion of knowledge which perceives it, and the proportion of education possesed by the creator of the art. To the beholder unaware of the magnitude of the mathmatical dimensions of the great pyramid, it is but an impressive tower of stone. To those without knowledge or understanding of cryptology, Shakespeare is only a composer of some cultural significance. Yet the mind which understands the scientific wonderment and mathmatical wizardry held in awe in Giza; and the individual who can perceive the allegories of prose and poem, both stone and word are transformed into wonders of captive amazement.
The tower of stone become a marvel of the intimacy between science and nature's mysteries. Shakespeare becomes elevated to heights of Sir Francis Bacon, and we inherit the evolution of nature in poem. We are given the laws of physics in prose.
The message in this is profound. In order to captivate our greatest aspirations into reality, we must know how to create ourselves into subjects of desire which others deem necessary. The concept applies to employment, education, relationships, and every level of social participation that exists. If you want to be appreciated, you must first be beautiful inside. #staybeautiful
