...beauty is the projection of ugliness and by developing certain monstrosities we obtain the purest ornaments.

Jean Genet

The mind turned inwards is the Self; turned outwards, it becomes the ego and all the world. Cotton made into various clothes we call by various names. Gold made into various ornaments, we call by various names. But all the clothes are cotton and all the ornaments gold. The one is real, the many are mere names and forms.
