About the Book
Is It Beautiful?
From her childhood, author Dr. Betty Luceigh felt an inner separation between science and spirit. In Is It Beautiful? she reveals her lifelong process toward unification of mind and heart through her memoirs, poems, and reflections.
Her extraordinary vision of the Light of Beauty at age thirty-nine marked a dramatic shift in her spiritual awareness. Beauty became her mystery, companion, guide, and inspiration. Throughout the years, Luceigh has increasingly valued creativity, compassion, courage, and connections. Is It Beautiful? narrates her long arc of spiritual evolution and her deep yearning to share her awareness in service to others. Luceigh believes she will continue to experience the Light of Beauty as aging returns her home to the Oneness of existence.
