What is the maximum limit of perfection?
There is a saying that nobody is perfect...well I'm nobody.
Many people will ask me how I'm nobody,because i exists in every man..but partially.Nobody hold nobody completely because that would be an absolute thing.
Everyday i see many people doing various works.Some are legends in their fields or masters of their work.Many crave for money,others for satisfaction which can be of any kinda ranging from a small wish to a big desire or a lifetime dream.
sometimes i ask myself what should be the guiding pus pose of a human life??
money
power
thrill
family
relations
socialism
i find it hard to get one single reason,because there can never be a single reason as it would lead to disharmony in life.To live a almost perfect life one needs to have a balanced mixture of these things.Excelling in any one will lead to imperfection in the others which would ultimately harm the person itself.I've read about many great personalities which were legends in their field...but did you even thought how their other life areas were??
Were they the equally good in others fields also like personal relations,mental peace?
The answer is no.
The reason is whenever one focuses too much on one skill..the others are effected.The point I'm putting is of a high level thinking but we must think about this sometime in our life.
What adds more fuel to the fire is the comparative nature of human beings.We always try to compare things by the things we have experienced our self,heard,seen or felt in some phase of our life.When we fail in something we want our children to try the same.Although not all do this but majority follows the same pattern.Say it marriage,buying clothes,eating,dressing up.. we always try to guide up...Sometimes we do the right guidance and sometimes end up with only harsh words.
We always define perfection in our own terms.To some it is a Degree from IIM,a job in USA,a big property,or a rich family to get married.We all thrive for our perfection all our life.Perfection may be relative up to a bit..but excess of this always kills the spirit of real perfection.
May be one should give a second thought to their definition of perfection.Do they ever get what they were running for all their life,or they just ended up with excess of comparative forms which have no end.
Perfection should be carried with a balanced approach in life...perfection in a single skill can give u success in one field but for overall satishfaction in life..u need to be perfectly balanced in life.Man is a social creature and its perfection should be synchronous with his/her social life.

Synchronization? What is that actually, slowing yourself down to match others or taking the pain to run faster to be in the bunch.
Is there a relative limit to everything ...
How is the limit applied individuals or masses... they tought me individuals form masses, is that true?
Perfecion is imperfect, if we consider it in absolute sense but is there anything like an absolute perfect, no there is none, its always relative. Its just like you do not take bath with a cheese sandwitch, no matter how perfect the sandwitch is...
So what I am doubting is the purpose of this writing.
nothing is perfect...the point in writing this is that one must not be so crazy about one thing that it creates a dis balance and problems in his/her life..
in life u need to look after many things...going nuts after a single point(say love,money) wont let u anywhere...its a dead end.
very well said. I believe success has different meanings for different people....and that's the key to happiness.

I agree perfection can never lead to inner peace. I think happiness that you find in yourself and not outer material things should be the driving purpose of your life.
On a different note, thanks for stopping by Ram Pyaari's blog and appreciating my guest post.
