RMP does, in fact, state that it is an illusion.
[Arlo]
Right, Marsha, he states the "autonomous self" is an illusion, because
the "autonomous self" is a product of S/O thinking.
But if you move up to a MOQ perspective, there are NO illusions OR
existants, there are patterns of value. The pattern "self" is no more an
illusion (or an existential existant) than a car, or a bird, or a song,
or a system of map coordinates.
Do you not see that it makes zero sense to say, within a MOQ, that some
patterns of value are "illusions" and some patterns of value are
"real"? That's simply importing S/O thinking into the fabric of the MOQ.
The "self", within a MOQ, is neither an illusion or an existential
existant. It is a pattern of value, one whose value
(persistence/stability) is marked by how well it works in describing
experience, in other words its experiential value.
