Funny quote since it is only true in unnatural bodies of water and not for long. In natural water the flowing water is clear and still water turns to muck.

I don't want to exist in an unnatural state, I want to exist in a natural state.

I think this metaphor really has depth.

If you start to do the practice in your daily activities you will realize that you have been practicing entering the state of flow. Sitting around thinking about breathing all day isn't a natural state for a human.

Stationary practice has a place, but it is not the end. Use that skill to build a more useful skill on top of it.
