In the world, what people call beauty, the Buddha’s teachings refer to as dignity. However, dignity encompasses beauty, while beauty alone cannot be equated with dignity. This is because the Buddha’s teachings take what appears on the surface—the beauty seen by the physical eyes—and infuse it with the power of internal nature and inner purification. This combination creates true dignity.
