Marsha to Andre:

I would rather see the MoQ relating to Quantum Physics towards an
enlightened Philosophy of Science than looking back to James, Northrop and
etc., but that would take hard work, not just regurgitation.  What the Buddhist
discovered by looking inward seems to be reflected by the physicists looking
outward.  The MoQ is the bridge between the outer intellect of the West and the
inner insights of the East; both have used a 'scientific method' and rationality.
The SODV was the way to go, imho.

Andre:
'...outer intellect...and...inner insights...???

Marsha:
To restate:
What was Buddha doing sitting under that Bo Tree?  My guess he was
meditating and using his intellect (rationality&  scientific observation) to
study the mind.   The big difference seems to be that while the West
studied an external reality, the East studied the internal reality.

Andre:
I didn't realise your question was rhetorical Marsha. Just clarify this 
next time so I won't bother.
