Have you ever imagined to seize the clouds or to imprison the air in a particular enclosure, in a small arena of perfect entrapment? What do you think? Is it really possible? Or is it just an illusion to think over? As I feel it`s been an illusion to be an absolutely perfect one in this world of creative imperfection. You may be baffled, may think why am I considering this world as the world of creative imperfection?
Here in this blog, I would like to explore that mystery that continually harks you back and makes you feel that you need to be perfect at any cost. But have you ever thought while the universe itself is imperfectly creative and harmonious with its own essence, so why should we need to be perfect according to that monotheistic yardstick of perfection? As we all are nothing, but some souls in human forms and very much aligned to the universal source of creativity and intelligence. Hence we all have that individual power inside, our soul`s power that always speaks for our own identity, our own presence. Though it may be imperfect according to the stereotypical world of logical understanding, but it cannot be imperfect according to our soul`s choice, according to the spontaneity of our heart that always seeks for that peace inside, seeks for a different newness and always speaks for the truth and beauty of our existence! But now a days we`re forgetting that fact and every time seeking for that absolute perfection and quite unknowingly of us, start to hobnob around some false hopes of extra glitters, ultimately inviting an utter failure at every facets of our life. As in the due course of getting perfection, most of the time we forget about our own potentials and indulge ourselves more and more into that path of getting extra attention for being `perfect`.
Sometimes we succeed, but sometimes we fail and again and again allow our self- created deprived self to consume that all menacing darkness of failures and misappropriations. But we never delve into that darkness of unending possibilities. Rather always tend to channelize our consciousness towards that elusive concept of perfection, towards that monotheistic logical understanding of being perfect at every cost. And once again invite that failure, invite that gap into our life, even being in this imperfectly harmonious world of bliss and beauty.
Yes! Here in lies the difference! Here in lies the magic of considering yourself as a perfect one, even with the art of your imperfection! Yes! here in lies the magic of your soul who knows no boundaries of perfection and imperfection, who only knows how to feel herself, how to meander around those untouched places of mystery and grace; here in lies her actual enigma who chooses to evolve herself in a newer way, in a way where every time creation comes around in a spontaneous way and whispers into your ears; “Hey! Is there anything needs to be perfect?” You may not find any answer all at once, but can feel within that creation doesn`t need to be perfect, but needs to be spontaneous, mingled with truth and beauty, all in its essence!
Being an imperfect one is nothing, but a blessing to identify your real self, within:
In this contemporaneous world when all the time we`re seeking for that absolute perfection, don`t you feel that in that due course of seeking perfection, somehow we`re losing our individuality. Most of the time we ignore ourselves and indulge our consciousness to get that extra perfection, instead of channelizing it towards a fruitful exploration of your real self. Sometimes we also get frustrated enough to know ourselves, sometimes even we get frightened enough to show our real self before the world. Sometimes we feel that we`re not that much enough to present ourselves before the world.
As a result of that, day by day we lose our confidence, we start to forget who we really are. And quite automatically start to deck ourselves with the extra coating of `being perfect`. But unfortunately lose our ideal essence, what we already have as our own potentials, totally ignoring the consciousness of our inner space and depriving our soul, once again. As knowing ourselves and accepting who we actually are is nothing, but to be with our own, to be with the universal source of intelligence with which we`re aligned since the primordial time of existence. But most of the time we forget that and tempt ourselves to be more and more perfect in the logical scale of perfection. As a result once again deprive ourselves to know and feel our soul in a deeper way. As I feel, not been able to accept who you`re in the real sense, is nothing but depriving your spiritual being, alienating yourself from the bliss of life, from the bliss of truth and your being.
So knowing yourself and accepting who you`re is nothing but accepting your depth within, accepting your imperfections and shortcomings in a harmonious way and healing your soul in a newer way to evolve herself with her own glory, more in a deeper way. Then your ego needs not to be satisfied with that temporary glance of perfectionism, rather your heart will find that aroma to be aligned to the truth of your being, to the truth of eternity where soul`s choice is the ideal one to heal yourself in a newer way. Here in lies the magical potential of our depth, within that most of the time we ignore in pursuit of that perfection according to the yardstick of linear logical pattern. But the more you delve within that depth, the more I can assure you that you may feel the depth of your unconscious, the eternal voice of your soul where you may not find that stereotypical yardstick of perfection, may not find what the outer world considers as `perfect`, but may feel that inner peace, that symphony within to which your heart is also attuned with. And the more you delve within, the more you start to grow, start to evolve in a newer way and start to open yourself to the truth of your unique potentials. Once again you may start to deepen and nurture your soul, enlivening yourself to the beauty of your unconditional being, to the truth of your spontaneous consciousness that will never indulge you to be in your veiled appearance, rather always will inspire you to be in your own feathers, to be with your own presence; unveiled, spontaneous and independent!
Imperfection is nothing, but a gateway to feel your creativity in a newer way:
The more you concentrate in what you don`t have, the more you indulge the incongruences of your existence itself. The more you may start to ignore your authentic nature, the more you can feel that you`re losing your inner experiences. And the quintessence of your being quite automatically start to fade away. And here at this juncture, I would like to remind you that our soul is very much independent in nature. She is all beyond the linear understanding of perfection of this stereotype world. She only chooses what she likes to choose. And the moment you accept who you`re and what you`re, quite automatically you start to evolve in your own way in a way where spontaneity comes along with creativity. And it is only possible through the help of your acceptance power. The moment you start to accept yourself, the moment you can feel an automatic transformation within yourself where nonlinear understanding starts to flow in its spontaneous way and the secret passageways of your soul start to evolve in a newer way. And descending down into the depth of your unconscious, gradually you start to feel that you`re not an imperfect one, but a soul indeed with some higher potentials. That`s why very much aligned to your true being.
And here in lies the actual magic of becoming who you really are. I feel it is not only a recognition of your higher power, rather a reconciliation with your true self where you need not to be bothered of getting that perfection, but to be aware of what your soul truly wishes for. As therein lies the real dimension of your being, the depth of your consciousness that always prefers to be flourished in a way of fruitful construction. And then imperfection may not appear as some shortcomings, but something as a blessing itself to rekindle your soul`s candle that is always burning within yourself, since eternity. Moreover it comes as a pure form of self- reflection, a revelation itself that ultimately leads you towards the path of choosing your actual purpose in this world of existence. I still remember those words of that painter who couldn`t cop up with the world of monotheistic logical understanding where perfections were only to be considered as something to be stereotypically `successful`. Yes! He was not that much successful. But he was content, within; with his art, with his own. Actually with his real self. And that real self is absolutely aligned to his creation, to his painting. Though he was not that much successful according to the yardstick of perfection, but he was perfect within his own. And it was only that passion, that creative instinct that ultimately helped him to see beyond that lens of perfection, beyond that so called thought pattern and made him to believe on the miracle of life itself, once again.
“The moment I start to paint something, the moment I used to feel in touch with that…then the canvas and the brushes didn`t appear as some objects to play with, but something by the help of which I can explore myself, I can make me feel that my creation is nothing, but a replica of my own…colors start to flow with its natural ease and the painting starts to create itself in a spontaneous flow of nature, in a way where I need not to think about the perfections or about the imperfections, but can feel an aligned force, within to create something new and to be with the harmonious string of eternity itself!”
Let`s feel your soul`s voice and feel your being, once again:
Imperfection doesn`t mean that you’ve nothing for this world to give or you`re not enough and complete within itself. Rather it means to evolve yourself with your true potentials, with some newer colors where your shortcomings may not to be considered as something to think over, but with the help of those shortcomings, ultimately you can realize the depth you already have within.
And here in lies the magic of knowing yourself in a deeper way, knowing the more within yourself, knowing the roots of your being, knowing the ground of your existence! The rational understanding of a stereotype mindset cannot cop up with this infinite potentials, cannot sustain with this unseen world of your infinite potentials. And as a result of that you may feel depressed at sometimes. But I can assure you the more you delve within the deeper core of your unconscious, the more you can feel that your consciousness is leading you towards the depth of that deepest region of your psyche, enlivening your spiritual being in a newer way, transforming your ordinary consciousness towards a newer dimension and making you feel that you`re complete and content within yourself. So you need not to seek for any external appreciations according to the yardstick of perfection.
You`re perfect with yourself, you`re perfect with all your imperfections as well. You`re perfect to heal yourself and to heal others in a constructive way. Then your being will be perfectly attuned to that higher consciousness that will introduce before you your soul`s ability. And at that state, your soul quite automatically starts to talk with your higher self and gradually you start to feel that your imperfections are nothing, but another way to evolve, another way to present yourself before the world, grounded true to your being and deeply connected to the eternal truth of your existence!
And then only you can feel that even amidst the darkest of the dark, even amidst the imperfections, you still have a hope, have a creative force, within to flourish in a newer way. And the more you delve into that dark, the more you can feel the power of your being; the truth of your existence, the purpose of your life itself. Once again, you start to feel that life is not all about to seek those perfections, rather life is all about to feel your real self and to be content and satisfied with the reality instead.
And here in lies the celebration of your life spring that`s eternally flowing within, since eternity. As herein lies the actual cognition, the real exploration of your soul`s choice and the reality that cannot be measured with that stereotypical yardstick of perfection. As our soul is always independent and spontaneous to create ordinary things in an extraordinary way, to transform imperfections into a newer way of perfection where life may not seem as something of a failed masquerade, rather as something to flourish, within in a celebratory grace!
“If the darkest of the dark
Calls you back,
Makes you feel –
You`ve nothing to heal,
Delve into your heart, within
Bring back that light inside,
Brimming, within, gleaming bright
Yes! With that everlasting shine!”
