The Interior of The Deep Water People
The two-degree change.
The state the immersion produces: colder, slower, honest. Members decline to name it further, on principle.
Understanding it — context, not catechism: how this passage is held
The two-degree change refers to the temperature shift on entering cold water and to the reported alteration of attention that accompanies it — the line holds that the body's response to cold immersion is the reliable interior experience it is organized around, available without belief, training, or a teacher.
