    I am not clear on how essences involve postulating a
    material metaphysics?
    Essence seems to be meaning to me. To understand essence
    it seems you are trying to understand the meaning of meaning.
    In distinguishing the levels why can't it be described
    as understanding the essence of each level.
    Do concepts and essence have to be linked?

    Hi Erin,
    Pirsig has said that Quality is the essence of the MoQ. That is a fair
    statement in my view. How do you feel about that?
