a week of beauty the week of tiit we went through a week of love a week of strength now we're going to go into a week of beauty this is counting the 15th day of the OM and the first of the week of course is is the love of beauty and we're talking here about spiritual Beauty not physical Beauty and the thing that will draw the soul the most is Beauty and the same way that I'm drawn to physical Beauty then the Soul also gets drawn to things the soul is a me magnified a million times so whatever I know on myself the soul is much more sophisticated the same way that I will be drawn to Something Beautiful my soul also gets drawn to Beauty this is tier tiet is the beauty the nature in the world that's how hasem created the world that we get attracted to something nice a nice car nice house nice clothes nice pictures I don't know many people says they go into a store and says give me the most horrible shirt that you have here I want something horrible the nature in the world is that we're going to be attracted to Something Beautiful of course we can't argue on The Taste let say they say in HEB on taste and smell you cannot argue but nevertheless Beauty will attract me doesn't matter what it is you go on the on the the street what they put in the window is all the beautiful things why cuz they want to attract the the customer to go in so the nature in the world that I will be attracted to beautiful things and the nature in the world that something that is not attractive will push me away is the love of beauty now again we're not talking here about a nice car a beautiful clothes or a a picture or an attractive individual is loving the beauty of the individual now comes a big question is beauty something good not always all the time beauty is good exactly but not only that there's a famous quote not everything that shines is gold so is beauty always good Maybe not maybe not always beauty is good and exactly like you call it which is actually more correct to say to to quote AB we spoke about that even though wrote it but this is the eulogy that Abu said to sah but nevertheless the question here is beauty always good so excuse me yeah so first of all we are commanded not to be tempted or seduced by Beauty don't go after your heart and your eyes now where did we see the first time that somebody was so to say tempted and seduced by Beauty with when she looked at the tree of knowledge it says about the about the fruit of the tree of knowledge to was beautiful was a gorgeous sight they just looked at it and we it's like each and every one of us has this weakness
