Hi Joe,
hypothetic (adjective)l: supposed but not neccesarily real or true sq = pattern, which I prefer to consider hypothetical I experienced DQ as nothing at all; I experience sq patterns as repetitive processes, conditionally co-dependent, impermanent and ever-changing, that pragmatically tend to persist and change within a stable, predictable pattern. View 1.) MoQ = Reality = Value(DQ/sq) View 2.) MoQ = theory, intellectual static pattern of value Marsha On Aug 27, 2012, at 3:01 PM, Joseph Maurer wrote: > Hi Marsha, > > Hypothesis: an unproved scientific conclusion drawn from known facts and > used as a basis for further investigation or experimentation. > > DQ is indefinable and not subject to any proof by logical investigation. > > With the conception of DQ/SQ metaphysics, Pirsig redefines "hypothesis". > Quality is converted from an adjective to an indefinable noun.
