[MD] Pirsig's revenge

[Andre Broersen]

Marsha to Bodvar:
I believe that an ultimate 'Quality' reality is what your posts have
been stressing.  A Quality reality where intellectual patterns, of the
SOM variety, may be seen as one possible truth among many, or both
true and false depending.  I'll happily sit under the Bo Tree.

Andre:
Hi Marsha, Bodvar, by this definition we cannot even intellectualise
about the MoQ, whilst the quote from Lila you present does allow us to
do so.
The 'M' of the oQ allows us to do this.
Under the intellectual umbrella of the MoQ intellectual patterns of
the S/O variety, the non-S/O variety,the 'Eastern' variety and who
knows what other variety, can be examined and those that are of value
can be enjoyed.

The MoQ is an intellectual pattern of value. Despite Bodvar's
objections to this, and Pirsig's insistence. To even suggest that the
MoQ is the be all and end all of all moons to come is arrogance at
least. And Mr. Pirsig is not arrogant.To equate the MoQ with Quality
itself is an absurdity.
