yeah, I was just commenting on how you said
instead of intellect, one should experience dq
(quality). You made these separate by saying a divide
exists between them. I don't agree with the way you
define 'divide'. You say focus on quality. I say
your talking about dq when you refer to direct
experience, for quality includes intellect, too
(though static quality). Intellect is NOT separate
from quality. Intellect is static quality, and yes, I
agree dq is not a goal, and is direct experience. If
you are not defining 'divide' as separate, then I
misunderstood you. If you are saying 'divide' as in
pointing out how intellect is a different aspect of
quality and direct experience experience is another
aspect of quality, then I agree. By different aspect,
I'm referring to how one may understand quality by
coming from a the direction of static and one may
understand quality by coming from another direction
called dynamic.

So, rocks aren't reality. What are rocks, some
kind of Vulcan vortex world that helps water flow. As
much as you may try to define a rock, why not let a
rock be untouched by your definition.

Let go of your ego, and let the tree be brown
without YOU having to make yourself believe you have
to make that assertion.
