Love and a sense of wonder are not just sentimental feelings; they have real, epistemological value. For these attitudes serve as a sort of magnifying glass that enables us to see clear through to the divine core present within each being and each situation. Indeed, this capacity to penetrate through superficial clutter to the core of inner beauty is precisely what the spiritual life is designed to accomplish.
