     1 - Rudeness!  I'm sarcastic at times, and I'm
sure this is rude to some, and Mazu physically hit his
students into enlightenment, anyways...  It was how
you 'tried' to argue your point.  You didn't argue. 
You just said "Upanishads philosophy" was
"irrelevant".  That's really not delving into any
intellectual patterns, other than the quick, it's not
valuable to Bo so get this "irrelevant" stuff out of
here.  Why is it not relevant would have helped.

     2- You didn't discuss it, so, how can we discuss
"anything and everything".

     3 - I use Pirsig's ideas quite often I believe. 
That's the point.  Many of us believe we are using
Pirsig's ideas, and for you to think you have sole
authority as to what Pirsig's ideas are seems a bit
tyrannical.  Did you notice the quote in Lila I
posted, in which Pirsig discusses Upanishads
philosophy and other pertinent India philosophy and
such?
