Magritte's The False Mirror or the mirror that doesn't reflect reality.

Thanks Arlo for sharing what you identified as self-referential or recursive
implications, i.e., an eye looking at an eye looking at an eye...
 
This _is_ what the Metaphysics of Quality claims to do, isn't it?
 
If the MoQ is an explanation of a reality that includes itself then the MoQ must be
an explanation of an explanation of an explanation...
 
Is The False Mirror false because the eye in the mirror is a false eye; only a
reflection of a real eye?
 
And is the Metaphysics of Reality not complete because the reality it explains is
only a reflection of Reality?
 
Aren't the reflections in all mirrors and the explanations in all metaphysics false?
 
I'm reminded of Pirsig's comment about metaphysics being like a resteraunt with
a 30,000 page menu and no food.
