Hi,
(translated from English to Dutch to English- sorry, I don't have an
english copy of Lila! Hope I don't offend the Pirsig Literalists! ;-)
page 428 (approximately!)
"Karma is the pain, the suffering that's a consequence through clinging
to the static patterns of the world. The only way to get out of this
suffering is a detachment from these static patterns, or in other words,
to 'kill' those patterns.
...[Suicide is no solution and immoral]...
...Another way is... 'ditching karma' on other people. You invent a
satanic sect, jews, or black people, or white people, or capitalists, or
communists- it doesn't matter- and the next thing you do is saying that
THEY are responsible for all your suffering..."
Good luck, Patrick.
