Steve: I disagreed, and the quote you provided demonstates that Pirsig calls higher levels "levels" before they go off on purposes of their own. The fact that the fist intellectual patterns offered freedom to social patterns does not mean that they did not constitute a level in Pirsig's hierarchy of types of patterns of value. > Lila Chapter 12 pg 101 (Electronic) >... > A primary occupation of every level of evolution seems to be offering freedom > to lower levels of evolution.
