'The Idea Of Beauty'
With each visit to Ladakh, I end up writing an essay on beauty. Has happened before and it happens again this time around. I'm not even surprised.
If there is one reason why Ladakh pulls me back year after year, it would be 'The People'. Not only are they genuinely kind and soft hearted but they define the word 'Beauty' in true sense.
In a world where beauty is applied in layers, smiles measured in grams and deeds connected to returns, here we have a place in middle of no where, away from all the madness of our "developed" world - with locals leading life as it's meant to be. Keeping it real and keeping it simple.
The idea of beauty is not the physical appearance of a person. Rather, it is an understanding of their culture, lifestyle and mannerisms that gives perceptual experience to one’s eyes, ears, intellect, and moral sense. Natural, powerful, real beauty originates from within the heart of individuals and when it blossoms, it is expressed in the most captivating, exquisite, and alluring manner which is hard to contain. Its contagious and I get a good dose of it with every visit to Ladakh. It's these people - the Ladakhis - who define the idea of beauty to me - in and out - period.
Yet another image of Padma Lamu - The Aryan. Everything said above holds true for this little girl. She defines beauty the right way.
