Our mind thinks in images, words and symbols but it is impossible to realize the truth through thoughts. But then why do all the sacred places like temples, mosques and churches have texts written on the walls, beautiful sculptures and symbols that hold a powerful message? Indian philosopher and mystic J. Krishnamurti says this is because these things are the product of human imagination. Imagination changes all the time but something that is beautiful always catches our attention, hence all sacred places pay a lot of emphasis on beauty. Krishnamurti says that we can become more aware by seeing beauty in literally anything if we pay enough attention to it. In this podcast segment, we will expand on Krishnamurti's philosophy and the ways of attaining higher awareness.
