Here's my definition of the self:  the “self” is a flow of ever-changing, conditionally co-dependent and impermanent static patterns value in the infinite field of Dynamic Quality.



dmb says:
As I've pointed out many times, your definition of the self is contradictory. Obviously, if the self "flows" and is "ever-changing" then it can not also be a "static" pattern. Those are contradictory terms and so your definition is nonsense. Can't you think of a way to say it that doesn't contradict standard definitions or violate basic logic? 
Words like "flowing" and "ever-changing" can rightly be used to describe the "Dynamic", but not the "static" or the "patterned". Since "static" and "Dynamic" are such central terms in the MOQ, your contradictory definition is especially egregious.
