חיפשתי את
clear

www.dictionary.com
ומצאתי את ההגדרה הבאה
"serene; calm; untroubled: A clear brow"

ראה הגדרה 16 במקבץ ההגדרות הראשון ו-12 בשני בלינק.

neutral  Odded Leon: I don't think it's a purely physical description, especially since it relates to a guru (and since a dictionary chose to take it as an example of another meaning of clear). I think the right answer is your brow and my clear.
