Hey all,
I was just reading some ZMM last night - my favourite bits when he takes
down the Dialecticians, and if what Paul says is acceptable about DQ being
what Pirsig meant by Quality in ZMM then the following has to make sense as
well:
If arete is the same as quality, and quality (in ZMM) is dynamic quality (in
Lila)... and dynamic quality is the pre intellectual cutting edge of
experience, then that's what arete is as well? Does that mean that DQ is
excellence? Could we say that what is most excellent is what is here right
now.. and now.. and now...? Live in the now man?
Or am I confused about Pirsig's conception of the Good??
