Below it state that the fundemental nature of static quality is Dynamic Quality:   



Moreover, Nagarjuna (1966, p.251) shares Pirsig’s perception that the indeterminate (or Dynamic) is the fundamental nature of the conditioned (or static):

     In their ultimate nature things are devoid of conditionedness 
     and contingency belongs to this level. This very truth is revealed 
     by also saying that all things ultimately enter the indeterminate 
     dharma or that within the heart of every conditioned entity (as its 
     core, as its true essence, as its very real nature) there is the 
     indeterminate dharma. While the one expresses the transcendence 
     of the ultimate reality, the other speaks of its immanence. The one 
     says that the ultimate reality is not an entity apart and wholly 
     removed from the determinate, but is the real nature of the 
     determinate itself.

Nagarjuna and Pirsig also have a similar recognition of two types of truth; the ‘static’ conventional truth (sammuti-sacca) and the ‘Dynamic’ ultimate truth (paramattha-sacca).
