    Sam,

    Here you are comparing "what Pirsig is putting across" to what you "have
    discovered or been taught". We know what Pirsig is putting across from his
    books and letters, but you have not given us a clear understanding of your
    side of this comparison. How could one approach addressing your "severe
    tension" without a clear explanation of what you mean by "discovered or
    been taught". What are you comparing?
