Thanks for your clarification. I was reacting to your remark about "that 'mind like water' state where you're simply reacting to the circumstances of life as they arise." As a scholar I have a problem with the whole "mind like water" metaphor because water doesn't do anything of its own accord; it seeks the lowest point it can reach. I should have thought more about your post as a whole; last night I seemed to have "mind like molasses."
