Lesson 24-1 Beauty
A young man sees a sunset and, unable to understand or to express the emotion that
it rouses in him, concludes that it must be the gateway to a world that lies beyond. It is
difficult for any of us in moments of intense aesthetic experience to resist the suggestion
that we are catching a glimpse of a light that shines down to us from a different realm
of existence, different and, because the experience is intensely moving, in some way
higher. And, though the gleams blind and dazzle, yet do they convey a hint of beauty
and serenity greater than we have known or imagined. Greater too than we can describe;
for language, which was invented to convey the meanings of this world, cannot readily
be fitted to the uses of another.
That all great art has this power of suggesting a world beyond is undeniable. In
some moods, Nature shares it.
