ZEN AND THE ART OF MOTORCYCLE MAINTENANCE (Review)

I read this book on philosophy a couple of times years ago and I'm still getting great milage from it for explaining God to people.

In it Pirsig attempts to resolve the tension between what he describes as the two main worldviews in the West, Classical and Romantic, by using the term of Quality.

Pirsig does mention the Trinity, and gets close, very close, but misses the fact that the One and the Many, Diversity in Unity, the General and the Particular etc., yes, his Classical and Romantic views, are resolved only through understanding the Triune God, the Creator Whose whole creation points to Him everywhere we look. Being Triune, God, as described in the doctrine of the ontological Trinity, is the original One and Many et al.

Regardless, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is well worth taking the time to read.
