Truth and Beauty : Form and Formless
It is formless ......... again it manifests its own self in different forms. It is infinity, again it is the self expression of the smallest element of the Universe. That Ultimate is the truth and the tune it plays at the strings of heart is Beauty. A form of beauty is a gateway to the formless eternity.
