We describe a novel class of geometrical models of relativistic stars. Our approach to the static spherically symmetric solutions of Einstein equations is based on a careful physical analysis of radial gauge conditions. It brings us to a two parameter family of relativistic stars without stiff functional dependence between the stelar radius and stelar mass. As a result, a point particle idealization -- a limiting case of bodies with finite dimension, becomes possible in GR, much like in Newtonian gravity. We devote this article to detailed mathematical study of this limit.
