[MD] Sympathy for the Devil

[Ant McWatt]

Marsha,

As I said, I'm preaching.  There's far worse sins against Quality than being all mystic about it and, of course, it was a female mystic (Sarah Vinke) who got this MOQ show "on the road" in the first place!

BTW, as I didn't have a narrative to worry about, I always thought my mystic insights in the MOQ Textbook were just slightly better than Bob's in LILA.  Just don't quote his mystic insights any more.  :-)   

Take care,

Ant

Hi Ant,
 
Be assured I will make an effort not to reference any of the Buddhist commentary from your Textbook or PhD dissertation again.  It's a shame though, I thought you and RMP offered some interesting insight.

Seriously, as you implied in your last response to me in the "self" thread yesterday, both [Dynamic and static] perspectives are useful in the right context.  I just have a feeling... that the static viewpoint is the default one in LILA and so should be the default one here.  It's MOQ Discuss; not Mystic Discuss.  If you want to use the Dynamic viewpoint, the Tetralemma (Paul Turner's adopted "baby") or whatever esoteric perpective that Scott Roberts was going on about years ago (if I sound too dismissive of the latter - I shouldn't be because it IS worth at least being aware of these various perspectives), these viewpoints should be qualified before use.  It help keeps that little intellect of mine clear about what's going on; which metaphorical trees are where and in which metaphysical or mystical forest.   (And on and on and on...)
