I was wondering if anybody knew if Pirsig uses
Lila due to the west/east rift that the moq mends.
Lila being beyond duality in both Hindu and Hebrew,
yet, in the Hebrew/western end of the rift female is
seen negatively, whereas the Hindu Lila still retains
the non-duality. Seeing that the moq comes out of the
west, is Lila 'unearthed' for who she really is by
Pirsig? Is not Lila in the book 'Lila' a
representation of non-duality? When Pirsig said he
was trying to get to the root of SOM, he went way back
according to these links. Back into the mythic to
unfold the overlaps of western interpretations of Lila
where it seems the Hindu version might have retained
the more original version of Lila without all the
overlapping western extreme of male rationalizations.
So, maybe you don't know if Pirsig had a character
called Lila due to this historical thread, so I'm
wondering if anybody else knows?
