I certainly have to say I have difficulty understanding the method here
sometimes. . I'm re-reading Lila and I have to tend to agree with
Pirsig, Natives do not relate well, all this does seem pretty silly to
me .. like a lot of mental masturbation. I subscribed to have questions
I have answered or explored in a hope of furthering my understanding or
looking at them from a differing perspective. People tend to romantasize
native americans and I never get a straight answer from anyone. we're
not more special than anyone else nor are we some Nobel savage, some
holistic insight "in touch"..look, it all boils down to "respect" a
dimishing comodity, it's no mystery.
One of the things that angered me was how Pirsig treated Lila when she
was showing him the "jungle queen" he may as well have crumpled up That
picture and thrown it overboard and said what do you know you dumb
slut,he had a perception of her of being a whore, which somehow devalued
her as a human being I think it's not allways about proving a point.
It's about becoming a human being, We are all buying into an illusion of
one kind or another what makes yours better? Opinion? I think a few of
you need to get down off your metaphysical high horses and check out
whats going on under your own feet. You're missing an awful lot. Case
said the smartest thing all week, it is all a pile of shit, Dynamic
shit.The static shit is in your head. Nothing in nature is static only
your perception of it.
