Day Twenty-three


I think we miss this one more than we think.

Which one?

The Pirsig principle.

The guy that wrote Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance?

And Lila yes.

What is his principle that we miss?

That the only Zen we find at the top of the mountain is the Zen we bring up there.

So only the enlightened ride to the top?

To ride is enlightenment. One has it to get there, not to seek it there.

I could take a helicopter and get there faster and easier.

Faster and easier?

(pause)

Right.
