Right, the 4th level  is a MOQ subset and the MOQ cannot fit inside 
even if the "weak interpreters" try their best. It will always leave a part 
uncovered (like trying to wrap an article in a too small paper)   
"Thought is not a path to reality ...etc." Great,  in what context did you 
find that? 
 
Hi Bo,

This is from Chapter 5 of Lila where Pirsig discusses the mystic's objections 
to a written metaphysics. He went ahead anyway but included in the MOQ a 
critical element that is "too obscure for existing language," i.e., outside the 
intellectual level. Unless one acknowledges the indispensable role of DQ which 
cannot be defined and is thus non-intellectual, one's understanding of the MOQ 
is weak indeed. 

Best,
Platt
