Hi Wim, All
For me the best religion is pursuing Dynamic Quality by creating and
contemplating art as well as by pursuing beauty in all my endeavors.
I reject religions based on faith including Christianity and Islam.
I reject all religious sects because their rituals and practices
promulgate static social patterns.
I reject social moral codes based on divine revelation such as the 10
commandments because they have no intellectual base.
I seek to understand the conceptually unknown through art because its
essence is, as Pirsig asserts, aesthetic. Thus I find some religious art
to be inspirational and revealing of DQ.
For me, art and beauty can make a direct connection to Dynamic Quality.
That's my religion. IMO there's none better.
Regards,
Platt
