When someone say's "Lift not the painted veil" they are saying not to look too closely or over examine something. It comes from a Sonnet by Percy Bysshe Shelly in which he says not to over examine life and what comes after it because you will be disappointed.
It is similar to one saying "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth."
