[djh] Marsha you wrote: "I am at the MD to explore RMP's Metaphysics of Quality and the MoQ's relationship to Buddhism, and the way they play in living my life." How are you here to 'explore' RMP's MOQ? Are you here to explore it intellectually or in some other way? It's bleedingly obvious that you're not here to explore anything intellectually. You think that talking about Dynamic Quality and non-grasping and enlightenment and 'ever-changing' things is 'exploring' the MOQ. But it isn't. To point out something else exceedingly obvious - the MOQ is an intellectual thing - the type of 'exploring' you want to do is not intellectual. You talk about not being too fixated on something - well I think you're fearing that in others that which you fear most in yourself. You are the one fixating on the 180 degree enlightenment point that Dynamic Quality is the source of all things and neglecting the importance of moving on from this fact and going back to the patterns themselves to find 360 degree enlightenment. What you fail to see as a result of your fixation is that Dynamic Quality as the source of all static quality can actually also be an *intellectual* insight and not just an experience of Dynamic Quality. This is what Paul Turner talks about in his two contexts paper. Only once you appreciate this intellectual fact will you be able to move on into looking intellectually at the patterns themselves.
