Dear Marsha After you've read my book twice you'd know that I would never adopt that position. I, however, insist that you read and try to better understand me, dmb or RMP. It's not dangerous, it's dynamic, and maybe fruitful also.
Static patterns are real, and by that, patterns are a Part of the reality. MOQ is a concept, a pattern and by that real, a Part of the Big Reality, but it is not The Reality. You've got self-confidence, but that picture of your self in your own mind-mirror is not the real you. Still it is an important part of your reality. This is what RMP tells in Ch 32. Static patterns are contours, remnants of Dynamic patterns. We never know the "goodness" of a dog completely, but we can feel the smell of it. Patterns are carrying Value, the messenger of the message, means for experience. I hope you see the message here. I showed you that it is three-dimensional. The time and effort you put on MD(1), the spotted series of characters and words(2) that carries the Carmic Garbage, you know that you are free to like it or not(3). We don't have to throw away static values to be able to experience the dynamic side of the reality. Calling all patterns hypothetical is pathetical overkill to me. I don't find it useful at all. Andre's "la-di-da" is just perfect in that case. If you read the complete ch 32 careful, it is quite clear what RMP means with Carmic Garbage Static Patterns vs Dynamic Quality. He doesn't say "leave Static Quality in favour of Dynamic Quality". He just point at that there are two sides of the coin. (And that the coin has a value stamped on both sides of it.) Now let's be more serious: How could you tell a joke and make people laugh without using static, socially common generalized, patterns? A native woman from the Kalahari desert was asked about what kind of sex position she liked best? "Well, I think its best when he stands behind me while I'm whatching out of the window for my husband." "La di da?"
