God is imperfect and so are you....

[Mu_]

Hope everyone is doing well.  Here is something I thought some of you might find beneficial in your own journeys, since its a knot or confusion that can arise in this journey, especially for the thinker types like myself.

For me, it’s called accepting reality. I’m limited in what I know, in my compassion, and in my physical condition. I just am. It would be delusional and counter-productive for me to presume otherwise.

None of this means I can’t or don’t seek to improve . I do. But it means I’m doing so aware that even progress is progress, not perfection.

[Thought Art]

God is imperfect? God is actually perfect. 
 

Shiva is equally okay with pain or pleasure, joy or sadness. That’s part of the perfection.

Ya I think that is a healthy space to be. But there is also a paradoxical realization that it is Perfect in so called imperfection which can defiantly shift and orient things internally as well.

God is perfect, because God is formless potential. All form is imperfect, because all form has limitations. But all form united together (which they are) is perfect in its totality. So any imperfection we see or experience is just self bias.

I think your idea of what is perfect is what is imperfect. If something exists, how can it be anything other than perfect?

But there is also ultimately no "self" for self-bias...  Love, chaos, discomfort, peace, bliss are all aspects of the journey that God is and has been and remains as, but again these are just good approximation words to point to suchness...... Perfect, imperfect?  Well.......
