Ron: I am no expert either, but let us look into this matter further. Dynamic morality is a dynamic code of conduct. A dynamic excellence. what defines this excellence is contingent upon the 4 static levels. What we have is this vague definition of "care" and what is care but value? So, what we value is dynamic and contingent upon the 4 static levels.
Dynamic morality, dynamic quality, dynamic force, are all general terms for the act of value, BUT EXCELLENCE implies the value of exceeding static patterns. Some would argue that the value of excellence IS the act of value itself. the process of a dynamic reality so that excellence flows through everything. In other words it is the process of evolution. to my understanding then, the excellence of intellectual patterns is conscious creation and invention. Pure original thought. Each one of us is the excellence of the intellectual level. Your own life is the 5th unsaid dynamic level of the MoQ. a view only known to yourself.

You say DQ/SQ? is niether static nor dynamic yet you say that reality is DQ/SQ. What IS MoQ then if it is niether DQ or SQ? What you say here in effect is that reality is not reality, I must ask what then is reality if it is not reality? Andre: Good Ron. You've made a very interesting observation about which I have been thinking for a bit. Problem with Pirsig's use of language is that it can be interpreted in different ways as having different meanings. He did not call the code of art 'Dynamic quality' ! He called it 'Dynamic morality'. Now,... elsewhere he calls the ( evolutionary 'drive') the Dynamic force. One can only speculate on whether he has meant the same thing in all 3 examples or whether there actually is an intentional difference in meaning which is intended (within the context of the MoQ). Maybe, maybe not. For me, this is yet another example of being 'suspended in language' but also another example of Pirsig's own doing, namely: creating a dualism out of One.(i.e Quality). For the moment I'll stay with the quoted passages and say that the MoQ = DQ/SQ...the Code of Art...Dynamic morality. It is both...i.e.within and without and between....above intellect. I am not the expert, I just followed my feeling and creating this juxtaposition gave me a feeling of fresh air.
