    Dear Marsha,

    You asked 8 Apr 2005 04:35:14 -0400:
    > Are you saying that at the individual level the static quality which one
    > does not understand intellectually is equivalent to Dynamic Quality to
    that
    > individual?

    I don't recognize that as a restatement of what I wrote. I hardly understand
    what you mean.
    I'm not writing about 'static quality' as something to be 'understood' (or
    not) by individuals. It is not an object with a relation to an subject.
    Static quality is the stability of a pattern. It is the 'patternedness' of
    experience.

    I was writing about being bound to (or stuck in) cultural (social and
    intellectual) patterns of value. Social patterns of value are changed
    (dynamized) by anything from 'above', either by intellectual patterns or by
    Dynamic Quality directly. Intellectual patterns (i.e. a scientific method)
    changes social patterns of value (i.e. a traditional way of printing books).
    From the point of view of those social patterns of value there is no
    difference between being changed by an intellectual pattern of value or by
    Dynamic Quality directly. That's what I meant with 'Intellectual quality
    represents Dynamic Quality from a social point of view'.

    With friendly greetings,

    Wim
