Beauty in its Universal Sense

[jimwell]

I searched for the definition of aesthetics for the first time ever. According to www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com, it is the branch of philosophy that studies the principles of beauty, especially in art. So, I also searched the definition of art: the use of the imagination to express ideas or feelings, particularly in painting, drawing or sculpture.

This is disappointing because beauty, in my perception, is all-encompassing. I provided my AI with a few examples of beauty, such as worldview, philosophy, and strategy, and then I asked it to expand:

Exactly—aesthetics is the principle of beauty, but beauty itself is not confined to art in the narrow sense. It’s a universal lens through which we perceive harmony, elegance, and meaning across every domain of life. If we expand your list, beauty can be seen in almost every human pursuit:

I feel compelled to clarify key terms and codify them into my Signature English:

Aesthetic (noun): the unified essence or philosophy of beauty; the Philosophy of philosophies or the Style of styles of beauty.

Aesthetics (noun, plural): the philosophies, styles, or systems of beauty.

Beautiful (adjective): the immediate manifestation of beauty as directly perceived or felt.

Aesthetical (adjective): the qualifying term that marks something as related to or possessing beauty.

I have planned to learn Korean and Japanese as a demonstration of my alignment with my visions and ambitions. So I will use these languages, in harmony with my Signature English to verbally capture my essence:

나는 보편적 미학(Aesthetic)과 미학들(Aesthetics), 실용 철학, 영성, 그리고 자기 역량 강화에 열정을 가지고 있습니다.

Naneun bopbyeonjeok mihak (Aesthetic) gwa mihakdeul (Aesthetics), silyong cheolhak, yeongseong, geurigo jagi yeokryang ganghwae yeoljeongeul gajigo itseumnida.
