Question No. 111 :
"Beauty lies in the eyes of the observer" - what is the sense of referring to 'eye' here? If the sense isn't appropriate, make sure to add some details to it.
Answers
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder/observer.
- A very beautiful quote said by Plato .
It means that everything is beautiful just it is our vision/point of view.
Here eye refer to our vision /point of view .
The sense is very appropriate.
Let's take example to understand it in a good way :
There were two friends. One was Rose and other was Minal .
Both were in same class and they were neighbours too.
One day they drew some paintings. Minal was poor while Rose was rich . Rose's father was very anxious because he was very busy in his works and was not having time for his family.
On the other hand Minal's father was very calm and he spent time with his family too. So when both girls show their paintings to their fathers. Minal's father was very happy for both the girls. He gave many blessings to both girls while Rose's father was anxious so he said that you are just wasting your time. Both girls asked Minal's father about it . He replied that Rose's father is busy that's why he said so . But in reality he blessed you both. Those girls forgot about the saying of Rose's father and became happy.
Moral : Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.
Or
Moreover we get , morever we became restless in Hope of more .

☛Beauty lies in the eyes of the observer :- well said by Plato . The beautiful thought refers to the fact that the idea of perception of Beauty is a subjective thing .
=> For an instance , two people are looking at a painting . To one of them , the painting is extraordinary and admirable while for the other , it's nothing but an ordinary art work . Why ? Because their way of viewing that same painting varies and so does finding beauty .
☛What one person finds beautiful may not appeal to the other one because beauty is an inner phenomenon , a thing to be felt from the Heart . The Conception of "Real Beauty " varies from person to person .
❁Here , sense of referring the eye has a great meaning . Eyes here refer to your vision of how you view something . In today's materialistic world people mostly find beauty in what's 'branded' n 'expensive ' but then we all have heard "All that glitters is not gold"
❑If you have that sense of vision , you can find beauty in the smallest things like a baby playing , ants carrying their food... Actually this whole world is so beautiful if you look with a vision .
→»For a mother , no one in this world is more beautiful than her child . Similarly for the child his/her mother is the most beautiful lady in the world . Thus, this very idea of what's beautiful and what is not lies in the eyes of the one who's observing that , all the difference lies in the eyes of the viewer i,e the vision of viewing .
=> This is what makes the idea of perceiving beauty a subjective thing .
☛But Remember , though beauty lies in the eyes of the observer but if the eyes are sad , you won't find anything beautiful . So , look at each thing with a Happy view and you would find this whole world a beautiful garden .
