Hello,
This is my first post to this mailing list. A brief introduction of myself: My name is Reinier, I live in the Netherlands. I have read ZMM last year, I've just finished Lila and I'm now reading Lila's daughter. This is a strange experience, to be able to join a discussion group that I'm actually reading a book about/from.
Anyway, here goes with my first post, and I don't know if this subject's been posted before. I haven't seen it, but then again, there's a lot I haven't seen.
Pirsig states that everything is quality. The MOQ is all about quality and nothing about substance. If we totally abandon SOM (and I'm all for that) what would be the consequence for space, and I mean geometric space? I've come to the conclusion that geometric space cannot exist because of contradictions even in SOM itself. (I'll explain those if necessary) But from the MOQ point of view there isn't even a need for geometric space, because there is no substance to take up space.
I have the same feelings about 'time' but I'll go into that later.
Best regards,
Reinier.
