You said  this then, in the same post...

...you  said this.
Please  elaborate.


thanks.

Hi SA,
Many philosophers have concluded reality is fundamentally  other than 
Subjects or Objects.
A higher order distinction emerges when this happens between  suggestions 
that the fundamental reality is:
1. The One.
2. Unity (this is my sq coherence notion, which may  be interestingly a 
subset of the following if DQ = Quality):
3. Quality.
 
Metaphysics is the fundamental reality behind Physics.
If Physics = X (e.g. Subjects and Objects)
Then Metaphysics = The One, Unity, Quality.
Take your pick, unless you can spot a Meta-Metaphysics behind The One,  Unity 
or Quality.
 
Pirsig suggests the moq easily accommodates Subjects and Objects as a  
natural subset of sq.
Note: sq is not one of the 3 higher order distinctions i placed above,  hence 
my suggestion that it may be problematic?
 
However, note that sq IS a subset of Unity when Coherence is introduced,  
because sq-sq relationships may be unified.
Love,
Mark
