Jon: In Chapter 30 of Lila you'll find a discussion of the source of the Quality premise. Most of not all of your questions are answered there. It's a somewhat complex explanation. So I suggest it is the best source to go to rather than any interpretation I might offer. The nearest to a summary is this:
"Dharma is beyond all questions of what is internal and what is external. Dharma is Quality itself, the principle of "rightness" which gives structure and purpose to the evolution of all life and to the evolving understanding of the universe which life has created." (Lila, 30) Since you're interested in history, Jon, I think you'll find Pirsig's investigation of the roots of religion and the birth of the Quality premise of value.
