I don't see how anything, including time, can be independent of experience. Are you suggesting that experience is outside time? If so we're getting into Plato's timeless world of ideals. Not sure Pirsig would want to go there. Or maybe you're suggesting "time is experience and experience is time." In that case, Pirsig's notion of a starting "point in time" of experience is nonsensical.
