Guest guest Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 93 True tantric awareness DOES rely on outer beauty as an aspect of Divine Beauty. This is proved both by Scripture and by own experience . Of course maybe ppl who look ugly will try to say that outer form is just illusion - however it is a result of their complex, not logic. God created this world as beautiful, not as garbage and junk LOL. He created human beings as beautiful. Those who are phisically beautiful are closer to God's ideal in this part. For sure, outer beauty is not enough and it is not the main thing, but indeed it does matter in spiritual sense.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 93 I appreciate Ur sincere feelings LOL. Interesting still, why my postings hurt U... There must be some reason - look into Urself. I understand that U won't accept anything publicly; there's no need as well. I hope my words will find response inside U . Best wishes!

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 Hi Arjuna: I posted a song called "Hunger" that was in my mind after I responded to your message. Maybe these lyrics can help explain to you why I feel your post missed a major point. If not, I still wanted to share the song with the list.
