Perfection

I used to be of the opinion that “perfection” was a man-made conceptual ideal, rarely, if ever, attainable or realisable in practice. I now see that perfection is, in fact, the norm; it is imperfection that is man-made. We see what we are – we see ourselves – our mind – reflected everywhere. It is what we bring to the world, and what we imprint on the world. To make it perfect we just need to say Yes, and nothing else.

There is a beautiful phrase I heard somewhere: If I am afraid it is because I see something that isn't there.
