A Quantonics Web Site\MoQ

The table here is graphical distillation of chapters 12+ of Lila. It is a superb worksheet which captures what I call, The Pirsig System.
I added static layers above and below his essential four layers.  These are purely speculative and may be
useful to you in assessing The Pirsig System and its usefulness in your personal philosophy.

Dynamic Quality - Dynamic Value Patterns Surround the:
