Greetings,
I take the two-view perspective of the MoQ. There is the MoQ as the
intellectual/conceptual metaphysical system, with all its examples and
supporting explanation, which was presented by RMP in 'LILA' and with
interviews, text and letters; and there is the MoQ as Reality = Quality
(Dynamic/static), or as I prefer to think of it: Value(unpatterned/patterned).
In this second view, I am saying that the Metaphysics of Quality denotes
Reality = Quality(Dynamic/static). Metaphysics as first, or fundamental,
principle. --- The first view might be explained as 'pointing to the moon',
and the second view as 'direct experience', where one knows the
undifferentiated in the same way one knows that the tea is hot when one drinks
it
"Introspective observation is what we have to rely on first and foremost and
always. I regard the belief [in introspection] as the most fundamental of all
the postulates of Psychology.”
(W. James, 1890)
"The purpose of mystic meditation is not to remove oneself from experience but
to bring one's self closer to it by eliminating stale, confusing, static,
intellectual attachments of the past."
(LILA, Chapter 9)
