Hi Marsha V and All, SOM's theory of how we know things was through abstraction of the essence from reality by the mind, giving it intentional existence in the mind using a definable word form from a template of previous experience.
MOQ, Pirsig suggests knowledge is the direct experience of reality DQ/SQ. Dreams can follow that experiential reality, creating analogues mocking reality? How can I know indefinable DQ? For me consciousness seems to be the only reality that identifies a capability of an indefinable direct experience of DQ. Dreams are interesting and creative mocking consciousness. They seem so real.
