Life is heading towards perfection isn’t it? We want perfection and it’s of three kinds:
Perfection in action or work
Perfection in speech
Perfection in feelings or attention
Some people may be very good in their action, but inside they feel very grumpy and angry. Some may lie, their speech is not perfect, but they do their jobs right, or they feel right. A doctor may tell a patient, “don’t worry! Your disease will be cured.” But that may not be true. At times, the intention behind lying is perfect. If someone lies intentionally, the feeling is imperfect, the speech is imperfect and so the action will reflect the same. Suppose someone makes a mistake and you get angry, looking at that mistake, then, you are no better than the person, who made the mistake because there the action was imperfect, but here your feelings have become imperfect! Any action will have some flaw, but when feelings become imperfect, they stay for longer period… the innermost perfection is lost.
Be thankful for the qualities you have been bestowed with because they are not of your own making. These qualities depend on the part that you have been given to play. When you understand this basic truth, then your inner perfection becomes stable.
The recognition of imperfections leads you to more perfection!
