Always try to see beauty in even so-called ugly images

Always try to see beauty in even so-called ugly images or in a person who hurts you. In seeing beauty in him, you evoke beauty from his soul. Usually when someone hurts us, we think ugly things about him. We think he is bad, insane, silly, stupid and we continually send him ugly thoughts. Such behavior not only strengthens his negative attitude toward us but also pollutes our mind and makes a better relationship between him and us more difficult. Such ugly mental arrows make things worse on the subtle planes; whereas if we think good about the person, on the subtle planes things calm down and prepare the way for mutual understanding.
