The description of a point mass in general relativity (GR) is given in the framework of the field formulation of GR where all the dynamical fields, including the gravitational field, are considered in a fixed background spacetime. With the use of stationary (not static) coordinates non-singular at the horizon, the Schwarzschild solution is presented as a point-like field configuration in a whole background Minkowski space. The requirement of a stable $\eta$-causality stated recently in [J.B.Pitts and W.C.Schieve, Found. Phys., v. 34, 211 (2004)] is used essentially as a criterion for testing configurations.
