Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance


So - Robert.M.Pirsig, philosopher of quality and value believed that the study of a motorcycle was as valid a route to enlightenment as the study of a cherry tree.
Do objects have intrinsic quality or do they embody only the values we project upon them?
I certainly do not believe there are any rules about routes to the divine. Some paths are well trodden but carry with them the risk of dogma or mediated experience. However other routes are fresh and new, alive with direct experience albeit strewn with rocks and unmarked hazards.
