All of you are aware that JAPAN has the highest SUICIDE RATE among the developed countries.
In a study it was revealed that - More than 50% of the people who have committed suicide in JAPAN are PERFECTIONIST. They are those people who are unable to accept IMPERFECTION as a part of their lives.
Aokigahara is the suicide point of the WORLD ! Read on !
Japanese believe that this forest is HAUNTED by the spirits of the people who have committed suicide.
However - This suicide point has become a major TRAVEL DESTINATION for many foreigners including me. We simply wanted to understand WHY THE JAPANESE COMMIT SUICIDE ?
Using this IMPERFECT POST lets ZOOM IN ON PERFECTION !
Let me share with you all the details of my HAUNTED TRIP to Aokigahara. We were a group of 10 and a tour guide was with us who showed us the most haunted places of the forest !
SCARY ! IS'NT ?
There are sign boards urging people to think about their FAMILY !
Japan is a developed economy - A PERFECT economy.
A rise in PERFECTIONISM means an increase in STRESS ; MENTAL DISORDER AND SUICIDE !
BBC NEWS !
In retrospect earlier i had introduced you all to Wabi-Sabi !
Wabi = NATURE that represents PERFECTION = MASCULINE ENERGY !
Sabi = FORCES OF NATURE Ex. AUTUMN ; SNOWFALL or CHEERY BLOSSOM that represents
IMPERFECTION = FEMININE ENERGY !
Each one of us regardless of our gender have both Masculine Energy and Feminine Energy within us. This means NONE OF US ARE PERFECT !
As human beings we all have IMPERFECTIONS ! There is a LINE what we can call as SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE !
If you cross that LINE you will suffer the BLACKLASH from the society ; People will judge you as IMPERFECT ; to avoid this you wear a MASK OF PERFECTION - Enter the EGO.

As per Carl Jung ;
A man who cannot accept his IMPERFECTION is a THIEF and
A woman who cannot accept her IMPERFECTION is a PROSTITUTE - A BLACK SWAN !
THERE IS NOTHING CALLED PERFECTION ; YOU CAN ONLY WEAR A MASK OF
PERFECTION.
PERFECTION.
