The marble is too resistant for perfect form, the pigments too muddy for perfect color. In heaven all they think is at once reproduced in form, for the rare and subtle matter of the heaven- world is mind staff, the medium in which the mind normally works when free from passion and it takes shape with every mental impulse. Each man, therefore, in a very real sense, makes his own heaven, and the beauty of his surroundings is indefinitely increased, according to the wealth and energy of his mind' (Besant) (Ringbom, 1986). | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/151745 | ISBN: | 978-1-60960-077-8 | DOI: | 10.4018/978-1-60960-077-8.ch013 | Schools: | School of Art, Design and Media | Rights: | © 2011 IGI Global.
