[MD] oldies but goodies

[118]

Hi Ron,
hmmm... Underling ethical values are conflicting?  I assume you are speaking of Morality here.  What you are pointing to are conflicts in morality.

This is an interesting topic since it relates directly to Lila.  What has Pirsig said about conflicts in morality and how these relate to a Moral sense of the "universe"?

I would like to know how your statement refers to MOQ.  I assume this is why you brought it up.  Please explain what you mean philosophically by this.

Thank you,


Mark

As I've said - a good mystic, like Steve Hagen, would know what DQ is and what it isn't.  To know the difference between the two however, requires care, attention to detail and precision. Not muddying of this distinction by claiming that everything is best seen as hypothetical rather than true.
