This is not an idiom - it is a quote from a television series called Kung Fu. This show was popular in the 1970s. It starred David Carradine as a half-Chinese/half-American priest who avenged the murder of another priest and was thus a wanted man in China - he came to America during the Old West period and the series was about his search for his American relatives. This quote was from one of the many flashbacks, of Quai Chang learning from Master Kan, who called him "grasshopper." 'Still water is like glass. It is a perfect level. A carpenter could use it. The heart of a wise man is tranquil and still. Thus it is the mirror of heaven and earth. The glass of everything. Be like still water. You look into it and see yourself.'" -
