"Bathing starts with inland waters. The basics of staying clean. It is not comfortable to meet yourself dirty. Inner bathing begins with cleanliness of attitudes, views, actions and thoughts. When you dip into personal waters, the outside world closes in and you are left alone with yourself. If you still feel dirty, it is not worth rising to the surface of the outer world. Cleanliness is needed there. Swimming is a matter of applying your swimming skills. You can swim in circles, upstream, even downstream. Downstream one can swim faster, but to show one's inner power one has to swim upstream. You see many swimmers swimming past you, but you still come face to face with yourself naked. Not everybody wants to swim, because there is water theft, drowning each other, helping the drowning to drown. But there are also those who want to go dark with themselves, who don't know how to swim, who are constantly rescuing those who are too deeply submerged, or who are swimming in the wrong direction. Apart from swimming, people like to swim. There is no direction, no chance of drowning. Swimming is a pleasure-seeking, a use of the waters of envy and greed. It is a simple frolicking in new and new waters." (Rimantas Bagdonas)
