Subject: Re: [MD] The Brujo
Ron:
Nail on the head. It perpetuates a misunderstanding. It is my understanding
that it was the wisdom of the council to embrace the Brujo that held the most
power in the story. It was the Zuni society which was motivated by DQ by
recognizing the Brujos potential and embracing him.

My, my Krimel, it is you I see as Don Quixote, not the poor brujo,
with your worship of scientific windmills. I would never consider a
poor soul who needs to peep into windows a shaman, yes an oddball,
yes a misfit, but I had never considered the brujo the "most static
of the tribe" either.
[Krimel]
Just a point of clarification: if I am a madman tilting, then the windmills
would be wooly headed idealism and delusional mysticism. But I like the idea
of having Hawking as a Sancho Panza. Now that is truly delusional.
I am not sure what Ron has in mind but I got mainly a sense of general
frustration at the miscasting in Pirsig's account and in how that miscasting
has been misused.
