...I believe Pirsig would agree with W. James and Nagarjuna.
John replied:
As would Royce and me, Ron. Our case for an absolute is also the middle way -
it's not the only thing there is, but neither is it non-existent. And as an
existant, it pulls that moral compass toward better and better analogy.
dmb says:
Your case for an absolute is also the middle way? But as Ron explained the
middle way avoids both nihilism and absolutism. How can the middle way be a
version of the thing it's supposed to avoid? To make the case for nihilism
would be just as bad. If you're shooting for the middle way between absolutism
and nihilism, making a case for either side would present a fairly serious
logic problem.
