[MD] Where does DQ end and SQ begin and SQ end and DQ begin? It's all bananas isn't it?

"You can't be aware that you've seen a tree until after you've seen the
tree, and between the instant of vision and instant of awareness there must
be a time lag. . .The tree that you are aware of intellectually, because of
that small time lag, is always in the past."  (Pirsig, ZAMM)

But isn't the "instant of awareness" always in the present and "the instant
of vision" always in the past?
And what about the lag between the time the light reflects off the tree and

"the instant of vision"?  What does this say about which is the fundamental
reality?

[Krimel]
I think you have it backwards. "The instant of vision" is always in the
present. "The instant of awareness" is optional.
