Life is but existence as seen in water; all is a skewed reflection. Thus, we cannot and should not put too much value in moral judgements of good, or bad, or right, or wrong. Each and every one of these concepts is flexible and ever-changing. In order to rise above and beyond these transient ideas, one must be simply calm, as the water is. The calmer the water, the clearer the reflection, and the easier it is to see what is truly being reflected. In our modern world, the waters move so quickly that trying to distinguish this is difficult. Only through calm contemplation do we stand a chance of understanding that reflection.
