Hello Horse.
No this isn't what I want to say. It's the experiential problem which I
personally have (and I'm sure many more have) in understanding how to pursue
DQ after killing dualism. All that's left in myself is emotion but I know
I'm probably missing something basic. But I just don't see it. I actually
agree with Pirsigs MOQ. This is more of a personal problem I have in
understanding things. I have friends who have the same problem with MOQ. I
just think it's an important aspect to clear up and to have a tutorial
explanation for, if possible - so that MOQ can't be charged with being
emotivism. I'm on your side, believe me.
