Hi everybody
I really thought that by joining this group, I would be able to discuss
ideas that arose within me from reading ZMM and Lila.
But it seems the majority of the discussions are critiques of what Pirsig
said or intended to say!!
Getting bogged down in the details of these books is like discussing the
individual bricks which make up a great building- you miss seeing the
building as it was meant to be seen, as a whole.
I would really love to hear some " original " thoughts - something fresh
These books have changed the way I view the world, but they are not a new
bible for me , they are only the key to a door. A door we all have to pass
through if we are going to move on beyond it, it may be scary to us to say
something we are not certain of, for fear of ridicule from more
knowledgable, more wise individuals, but I would rather be challenged at
every turn, be made to think, than to have a smooth passage free of mental
obstacles.
I want to be pushed to be made to think anew

Absolutely!!!
I agree 100%
I share your view completely friend.
My own effort to 'move on from Lila' has been thinking regarding Time.
A small effort, but hopefully in the spirit of which you mentioned.
All the best,
Squonk.
