Mayka,

Consider this description of 'mindfulness' that I had put forward with
the assistance of Mike:



"Mindfulness in the present moment is the concurrence of three states of
mind in the present moment:

(1) A clear and bright awareness of experiences in the present moment

(2) A non-grasping and non-pushing-away of these experiences, and with
no sense of I/me/mine, nor of subject/object

(3) Nothing else exists in the mind, and in particular no thoughts,
comments, judgments or evaluations"



Assume that a person's mind fulfilled every detail of the above
description of mindfulness, and at every point in time. With what
adjective would you qualify this person's mindfulness?

The word perfect is not in the buddhist or zen dictionary.  The word
perfect and perfection is not used in buddhist or zen environments. 
There is no judgement about you using that expression but just it simply
let you know about it.  Am I offending you for that?.   If that will be
so, then I await for any of them such as Steve, Bill, JMJM, Chris....to
let you know the same but expressed in a way you can connect with your
wave.  And simply through away, ignore it my saying.  If there is
anything from my posting  you can use it, then use it.  But if not, just
ignore it or throwing away.  No personal offence taken.  Be sure of
that.    Mayka
