    Many a times its discussed that humans possess an aesthetic sense. What role does it play when it comes to religion?

    A force which gives presence to a meaning. Aside from the belief and moral side of ours, doesn’t this aspect becomes the most dominant when it comes to getting in connection with the unseen? Like the sufis did with their dance forms etc.

    And how can we train this sense of ours.

    I think its the most neglected aspect of a human when we discuss and understand religion in today’s time.

    Aesthetic sense is the basis to determine and recognize Maroof and Munkar, i.e what is Good and Bad, it is the basis for belief too.

    What Sufi does in dancing, shows a feeling of association with something and this very phenomenon can be observed in any kind of dancing and yes show of aesthetic too. but feeling can be false or true.
