To lock yourself in any pattern is to become unconscious, it doesn't matter how good or bad! All such dichotomies are markers of the Mind influenced by Conditioning which is a response of the past, of that which has lost touch with the present.
Awareness roots You in the present and your Actions in sensibility and appropriateness without any link back to any Identity formed out of a memory of any experience-thought-imagined self-image.
You may choose to replace narrow structures with broad structures, or you can destroy structures altogether and flow as an active response to the integrity of the Present.
