Mati:  My issue at the MOQ Conference and still
is, without nailing intellect down to a reasonable point of understanding,
MOQ never will be able to have any greater meaning or contribution than this
discussion group.



RMP:  "The Metaphysics of Quality translates it:

While sustaining biological and social patterns
Kill all intellectual patterns.
Kill them completely
And then follow Dynamic Quality
And morality will be served.

Lila was still moving toward Dynamic Quality. All life does. This breaking 
up of her life's patterns looked like it was part of that movement.

When Phaedrus first went to India he'd wondered why, if this passage of 
enlightenment into pure Dynamic Quality was such a universal reality, did it 
only occur in certain parts of the world and not others? At the time he'd 
thought this was proof that the whole thing was just Oriental religious 
baloney, the equivalent of a magic land called 'heaven' that Westerners go 
to if they are good and get a ticket from the priests. Now he saw that 
enlightenment is distributed in all parts of the world just as the color 
yellow is distributed in all parts of the world, but some cultures accept it 
and others screen out recognition of it."
(LILA, Chapter 32)
