The great metaphysical revolution took place when everything became 
Quality. Thus the DQ/SQ division is not anything like the S/O split 
(mind you: the analytical knife always cuts S/O) but an internal 
arrangement - the static levels are value levels - not like the S and O 
that are worlds apart.       

Hi Bo,

If I understand correctly, you're saying that dualistic thinking based on 
divisions and "cuts" is SOM. The MOQ revolution is the transcendence of 
dualistic thinking by value understanding, not another SOM (intellectual) 
theory.

In other words, the MOQ perspective reveals a world not of observers and 
observed as seen from the dualistic viewpoint, but a world of values.. 

In the value world, distinctions are made on a vertical/horizontal axis whereby 
the vertical axis is the evolutionary value hierarchy and the horizontal axis 
is a high-low value spectrum. In addition, there's a creative force of dynamic 
value.

In this way, the MOQ releases us from an illusory dualistic reality to a value-
experience reality where one does not automatically see and say, "That's a 
small dog, or a brown and white dog, or a mixed breed dog," but "That's a good 
dog," or better yet, simply "Ah, so." 

Am I on target?
