[MD] Where was Quality before Pirsig?

Ron said:
So, this is where static meets dynamic, pre-intellect is dynamic quality. Once one is in the dynamic you are dealing with the mystical. DmB, would you loosely describe this as an awareness? A dynamic awareness arrived at through static intellectual patterns?

dmb says:
If dynamic quality is pre-intellectual then, obviously, it is NOT arrived at through static intellectual patterns. What sense would it make to ask if our pre-human ancestors were arrived at through humanity? None! Intellect is AFTER dynamic quality, follows from dynamic quality, is derived from dynamic quality. That's why we call it PRE-intellectual. It is also called the primary empirical reality because it is what we experience PRIOR to any static interpretations. C'mon Ron. Are you pulling my leg, or what?
