The reason you may be annoyed is that it does not agree with your relegation of our existence to static values. One cannot live in static quality alone. > > Joe: > I would be happy to discuss a definition and the evolutionary roots of Love. > > Andre: > You seek Love in and through static patterns of quality as they are evolving? > So it's not DQ for you? Well, that's a relief! I wish you'd use the word > "Quality" then though, as it appears quite comfortably to 'have' this "Love" > as well. One does not seek love, just like one does not seek happiness. These are not objects that exist separate from us. One cannot seek Quality either for such a treasure hunt is nonsense, there is nothing to "find", as you know. Love is Quality, whether it be returned or unrequited. Not all of Quality of course. One must switch their paradigm from the static to the dynamic, for such are the teachings of MoQ. Just because we have been taught during our maturation training that emotions are some base property that must be controlled by the intellect, does not make it so. That is pure Western arrogance that exists in Truths. I am suggesting that one needs to drop that static view and live in the dynamic. The passions create the intellect, they feed it. We "like" certain logical arguments, and support such "like", until something comes along that we "like" more. The logic simply supports such "liking". It is dynamic. This is my view. I am not suggesting it as a truth, nor does anybody need to agree with it. The intellect is a powerful master. It creates more intellect. However it is possible to "kill" the bewitchment they have, as RMP suggests.
