Once upon a time a prince met very beautiful young girl. He visited her house to see her but she was very chaste. The prince wanted to marry this beautiful girl but she didn't want to marry him. So she said to him, You want to marry me, you are attracted by my beauty, so I will distill my beauty in the next ten days, I will distill my beauty into Madhudvisa dasa (10-08-06) So the prince agreed. Then the beautiful girl said, "If you still want to take me as your wife then you can take me." The prince replied, "All right, that's fine, I'll come back in ten days and certainly I'll take you as my wife my beautiful young maiden." As soon he left the beautiful young girl started to take very strong purgatives [medicine which would cause her to vomit and pass stool]. She kept all the vomit and stool in a big pot. She didn't eat anything, she was simply passing stool and vomiting, so within ten days her whole beautiful body was destroyed. She was a gray color, she was very skinny, very weak, you couldn't recognize her as the same person. After ten days the prince came back to visit the beautiful young girl. She opened the door for him. When the prince saw her he said, "I have come to see one very beautiful lady who I am about to marry." So the girl said, "I am that beautiful young lady." He replied, "No it isn't true. How could it be possible?" She said, "Yes I am that beautiful young lady, I have distilled my beauty, come and see it." She took the prince to the place where she was keeping the big pot containing all of her stool, vomit and urine and she said, "Here is the ingredients of my beauty."
Namaste!~ You said "hope Im not too ugly" This story is of a girl who was beautiful on the outside as well as the inside. The boy who wanted to marry her was very selfish and shallow, and only wanted her for her outer beauty. So she purged herself, and showed him the vomit saying : "This is the ingredients of my beauty." The body is made of pus, blood, mucus, hair, bone, fat, vomit, whatever, lots of nasty things. But true beauty comes from the inside. The Soul, the Self, the heart. Whatever you wish to call that core life center, energy, vibration, God. I hope this has made it clearer, why I posted this! Your friend, John
Of course! No problem I just feel so sad when I see a beautiful soul worry about their outer appearance and call themselves ugly. I mean, I realize you were just saying that in a funny way, but still lol. I felt sad to read that. We can always love someone but we all grow old and we all lose our youthful beauty. You know? But it's how you are towards other people, the love and care you have for the well being of other souls, that makes you attractive eternally.
Thank you i try to remain calm and cool but for now i have to head to work if anyone looks i will be sure to reply ^^ thanks guys
haha :tongue: Not in 3 weeks Matt, but yea I guess it did help open me up a little more once again! But honestly, I have been seeing so much beauty in people around me lately, that I have been so high on meditation and the love from strangers, I cant help but try and share
