Hey Ron,
Ron said:
Matt, if Quality is reality which equates to experience is reality,
Would you agree that pre-intellect would equate to pre-experience
At this angle?
Matt:
No, I don't think so. I'm not sure what angle you're at, but pre-intellect being pre-experience sounds like idealism, the kind Pirsig flirted with in his discourse on ghosts in the beginning of ZMM, because if experience is reality, then before intellect there was nothing. I don't think that's right. One of the things we know about the world, through experience, is that it's been around a lot longer than us, language and a lot of other things.
Matt
