Extractions: Een prachtige titel. Pure muziek. Mystiek en motoren. Geen wonder dat Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance bij zijn verschijnen in 1974 werd begroet als de synthese van het hippietijdperk. 'Between the muffling effect of helmets and the whistling of the wind and the distractions of the landscape, one did not always catch more than a fraction of the lay sermon. But that was all right too.' Dat scheef een criticus in 1991 in The New York Review of Books over de roman van Robert M.Pirsig waaraan hij zoveel dierbare herinneringen zei te bewaren. Een onderzoek naar waarden luidt de ondertitel van deze roman (vertaald als Zen en de kunst van het motoronderhoud . 'In seinen Armen das Kind war tot.' Hoe jaren later het noodlot alsnog toesloeg, heeft Pirsig beschreven in een nawoord dat hij in 1984 aan de roman toevoegde. In 1979 werd zijn zoon Chris voor het Zen Center door overvallers vermoord. 'Ik heb de neiging me in filosofische vragen vast te bijten die ik telkens weer overdenk, in cirkels die alsmaar rondgaan totdat ze ofwel een antwoord opleveren, of zodanig vastlopen in een herhaling dat ze een psychisch gevaar gaan vormen...' schreef Pirsig ook in dat nawoord. Waartoe die filosofische gedrevenheid kan leiden, heeft de vader erin aan den lijve ondervonden. In wezen is de roman, onder meer via 'Chautauquas' - ingelaste filosofische bespiegelingen - een poging een antwoord te vinden op de vraag wat het begrip 'kwaliteit' nog inhoudt.

Doug Renselle's Letter To Robert M. Pirsig Dated September 14, 1997 About MoQ's
Doug Renselle's letter to robert M. pirsig dated September 14, 1997 about MoQ's extensibility.Thank you for your prompt response to my recent correspondence.

Extractions: City, State ZIP September 14, 1997 Dear Mr. Pirsig, Thank you for your prompt response to my recent correspondence. I appreciate your favor to allow me to use SODV on my site. As it turns out, The Lila Squad (TLS) has posted SODV on that site, so I will probably just link to it. Much of the discussion on TLS is about the sacredness and inviolability of MoQ. I have found almost visceral concern that MoQ be kept absolute. The reason given is your comments on the first page of chapter 12 of Lila. I feel guilty because most of this visceral reaction happened after my Architecture of Quality diagram was I have one simple question, which for me will put MoQ in a philosophical perspective that I can understand: Does MoQ value its own extension? Please forgive another intrusion by me after such a short interval of time. All my best wishes to you. Sincerely, Doug Doug Renselle

Extractions: In his now classic Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Robert Pirsig brings us a literary chautauqua, a novel that is meant to both entertain and edify. It scores high on both counts. Phaedrus, our narrator, takes a present-tense cross-country motorcycle trip with his son during which the maintenance of the motorcycle becomes an illustration of how we can unify the cold, rational realm of technology with the warm, imaginative realm of artistry. As in Zen, the trick is to become one with the activity, to engage in it fully, to see and appreciate all detailsbe it hiking in the woods, penning an essay, or tightening the chain on a motorcycle.

Robert M. Pirsig: Zen Und Die Kunst Ein Motorrad Zu Warten
die Methode der Rationalität gegen sie selbst, wendete sie
http://www.mauthner-gesellschaft.de/mauthner/can/pirsig.html

Extractions: Wir sind jetzt an der Schranke zwischen dem Klassischen und dem Romantischen, wo wir auf der einen Seite ein Motorrad sehen, wie es unmittelbar wahrgenommen wird - und das ist eine wichtige Art, es zu sehen -, und wo wir es auf der anderen Seite allmählich wie ein Mechaniker im Hinblick auf seine innere Form sehen können - und auch das ist eine wichtige Art, die Dinge zu sehen. Das Porzellan im Innern der ersten Kerze ist sehr dunkel. Das ist in klassischer wie romantischer Hinsicht häßlich, denn es bedeutet, daß der Zylinder zuviel Benzin und nicht genug Luft bekommt. Die Kohlenstoffmoleküle im Benzin finden nicht genug Sauerstoff, mit dem sie sich verbinden können, und deshalb setzen sie sich als Belag an der Kerze an. Als wir gestern in die Stadt kamen war der Leerlauf ein bißchen unrund, und das ist ebenfals ein Symptom für diese Störung. Bloß um zu sehen, ob vielleicht nur der eine Zylinder ein zu fettes Gemisch bekommt, prüfe ich auch den andern. Es ist bei beiden dasselbe. Ich hole ein Taschenmesser hervor, hebe ein Stöckchen auf, das im Rinnstein liegt, und spitze es am einen Ende zu, um die Kerzen zu säubern, wobei ich überlege, was der Grund für das zu fette Gemisch sein könnte. Mit Pleuelstangen oder Ventilen hat das nichts zu tun.

Robert M. Pirsig : Traité Du Zen Et De L'Entretien Des Motocyclettes
http://www.chourave.ch/biblio/pirsig/zen01.html

Extractions: Je me suis souvent demandé pourquoi nous avons mis si longtemps à comprendre. La vérité était là sous nos yeux, et nous étions incapables de la voir. Ou plutôt notre formation nous en empêchait. On nous avait incités à penser que les villes sont les seuls lieux où l'on peut agir de façon réelle et que, loin d'elles, il n'y a que le désert, l'ennui. Bizarre. La vérité frappe à la porte, et on lui dit : "Va-t'en. Je cherche la vérité." Elle, pour le coup, elle s'en va. Bizarre. L'habileté suprême, c'est de ne pas se perdre. Comme les routes de ce genre ne sont empruntées que par des gens qui les connaissent à fond, personne ne se plaint qu'il n'y ait aucun panneau indicateur. Et, le plus souvent, il n'y en a pas. Ou alors, c'est une petite pancarte, discrètement cachée dans un bosquet. Les fabricants de panneaux pour départementales n'aiment pas répéter deux fois la même chose! Si vous ratez un panneau, c'est votre affaire, pas la leur. Avec ça, vous vous apercevez vite que les cartes routières manquent souvent de rigueur : plus d'une fois, vous verrez votre "route secondaire" se changer en chemin de terre, puis en chemin creux, et finir en pâturage. Quand elle ne vous laisse pas dans la cour d'une ferme.

http://www.design.caltech.edu/Misc/pirsig.html

Extractions: back to the bookshelf zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance an inquiry into values robert m. pirsig And what is good, Phædrus, And what is not good... Need we ask anyone to tell us these things? Part I "What!" he hollers. "Blackbird!" He says something I don’t hear."What?" I holler back. He grabs the back of my helmet and hollers up, "I’ve seen lots of those, Dad!" "Oh!" I holler back. Then I nod. At age eleven you don’t get very impressed with red-winged blackbirds. I’ve wondered why it took us so long to catch on. We saw it and yet we didn’t see it. Or rather we were trained not to see it. Conned, perhaps, into thinking that the real action was metropolitan and all this was just boring hinterland. It was a puzzling thing. The truth knocks on the door and you say, "Go away, I’m looking for the truth," and so it goes away. Puzzling. But once we caught on, of course, nothing could keep us off these roads, weekends, evenings, vacations. We have become real secondary-road motorcycle buffs and found there are things you learn as you go. The main skill is to keep from getting lost. Since the roads are used only by local people who know them by sight nobody complains if the junctions aren’t posted. And often they aren’t. When they are it’s usually a small sign hiding unobtrusively in the weeds and that’s all. County-road-sign makers seldom tell you twice. If you miss that sign in the weeds that’s your problem, not theirs. Moreover, you discover that the highway maps are often inaccurate about county roads. And from time to time you find your "county road" takes you onto a two-rutter and then a single rutter and then into a pasture and stops, or else it takes you into some farmer’s backyard.

Here, in college, it was more sophisticated, of course; you were supposed to imitate the teacher in such a way as to convince the teacher you were not imitating, but taking the essence of the instruction and going agead with it on your own." "Montains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and without desire. The reality of your own nature should determine the speed. If you become restless, speed up. If you become winded, slow down." "One geometry can not be more true than another; it can only be more convenient. Geometry is not true, it is advantageous." "Quality isn't something you lay on top of subjects and objects like tinsel on a Christmas tree. Real Quality must be the source of the subjects and objects, the cone from which the tree must start."

Extractions: Robert M. Pirsig´s Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and the term ´Chautauqua´. Contents Introduction A short history of the Chautauqua movement Reconstructing Phaedrus Sources Introduction I would like to use the time to talk in some depth about things that seem important. What is in mind is a sort of Chautauqua The narrator sticks to this expression as well as to the lecture-form, the most defining element of the original Chautauquas, throughout the novel. He uses the term Chautauqua whenever he wants to present notions of a more theoretical kind: motorcycle maintenance, philosophy, technology, 20th century life, etc. These Chautauquas gain importance for the narrator on a very personal level, because the lectures become more specifically linked to the narrator´s life. Still, he never abandons pointing out general implications, trying to come to conclusions at the end of the Chautauquas (although sometimes the end of one and the beginning of another are blurred). A wide range of topics is discussed, which seemingly also inspired the narrator to come up with the term chautauqua. Other than that, parallels can be found in the ´lecturer´ being on the road in the U.S.A., his attachment to rural areas, and his system of day-trips in accordance with his chautauquas. A short history of the Chautauqua Movement Consulting volume nine of ´The New Pelican Guide to English Literature´, the one dedicated to ´American Literature´, I find that

Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance
An Inquiry into Values. By robert M. pirsig. pirsig, robert, M.; Zen andthe Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Vintage, London, 1989, 416 pages.
http://the-philosophers-stone.com/regulars/books/reviews/zen.htm

Extractions: Reviews Index An Inquiry into Values By Robert M. Pirsig At first glance this book seems to have nothing to do with magic. The fact that it purports to be about Zen might suggest that it could be related to magic or at least the philosophy of magic, but even that would be misleading. The Author's Note at the beginning says that "it should in no way be associated with that great body of factual information relating to orthodox Zen Buddhist practice. It is not very factual on motorcycles either" . However, the subject matter of this book, even if not strictly Zen, is central to a true understanding of magical philosophy, because true magical philosophy is all about values. The problem, of course, like a great many other significant writings, is that to say what the book is about would take away its essence when it is read. The book is basically about a man and his son on a motorcycle touring holiday across America. But to understand the author's point you need to go on the journey with him. If you know where you are going before setting out then you may not understand where you arrive. All this is a flowery way of saying that it would be spoilt by giving away the end, but in this case giving away anything would spoil it. The journey is full of parallels, some of which on first reading it fifteen years ago, went right over this reviewer's head. Certainly it stands a revisit if you haven't read it for a while.

http://members.tripod.com/~Glove_r/Q11-index.html

Extractions: Relational Awareness For the time being, I am treating awareness as the entire model, both static and Dynamic Quality, for the reasons implied by my interpetation of Godel's Theorum(s). While we are not aware of DQ, without it we would have no awareness, and so it must be acknowledged by virtue of our being aware in the first place. Godels Theorum states: 1) If S is consistent, G is not provable in S. 2) If S is consistent, G is not provable in S - making G of S such that niether G or ~(the negation of) G is provable in S. By now, the gentle reader will be saying to him/her self, what the hell could this possibly have to do with the MOQ? And what the hell does it mean anyway Actually, the idea it outlines is very simple in explanation, yet contains very deep complexities, much like the MOQ itself. Godel's Theorum, sometimes called his Incompleteness Theorums, tells us that in any formal system adequate for number theory, there exists an undecidable formula...that is, a formula that is not provable and who's negation is not provable. The only way to provide proof is to introduce a 'higher' system, yet this higher system will itself contain an undecidable formula, necessitating yet a higher system to provide proof. Godel proved that this is true no matter how 'high' the system is. This leads to the 'many truths' notion of quantum physics, which seems in direct contradiction to our everyday static quality reality of life until it is put into the context of the MOQ. Godel shows us that we cannot prove, nor disprove, anything in our static reality without going outside that reality, or into Dynamic Quality. Since the MOQ says this is impossible, it leads to much confusion until we say that MOQically:
