and then stop looking, be your heart, just your simple self, the source, as there is nothing imperfect in these lives, in these pains and joys:

There was a Japanese potter who wanted to make a perfect bowl. For years and years he practiced his craft, and one day he had in his hands a bowl without any fault. He looked at it long time and then suddenly made a scratch on the surface. "Why did you do that?", asked the apprentice boy. Master answered: "It would not be perfect without a fault."
