Buddhism, Beauty, and Virtue
In Kathleen J. Higgins, Shakti Maira & Sonia Sikka,Artistic Visions and the Promise of Beauty: Cross-Cultural Perspectives. Springer. pp. 123-138 (2017) Copy BIBTEX
Abstract
The chapter challenges hyperbolic claims about the centrality of appreciation of beauty to Buddhism. Within the texts, attitudes are more mixed, except for a form of 'inner beauty' - the beauty found in the expression of virtues or wisdom in forms of bodily comportment. Inner beauty is a stable presence throughout Buddhist history, practices, and art.Author's Profile
