The Value of The Individual | The Mike Hill Series | Episode 4 (WiM123)

Show Notes

Mike Hill joins for me for a multi-episode exploration of the masterful book “Lila: An Inquiry Into Morals” written by best-selling author Robert Pirsig. This book may be one of the most undervalued ever written, as it proposes an alternative interpretation of reality that Pirsig calls “The Metaphysics of Quality” (MOQ). According to MOQ, reality is not made up of substance, but rather it is composed of distinct patterns of value. In a Copernican-like revolution of perspective, MOQ sheds new light on age-old debates such as moral relativism, the nature of subject-object duality, good vs. evil, science vs. religion, the importance of freedom, and the primacy of action.Be sure to check out NYDIG, one of the most important companies in Bitcoin: https://nydig.com/GUESTMike’s Website: https://www.mikehill.design/PODCASTPodcast Website: https://whatismoneypodcast.com/Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-what-is-money-show/id1541404400Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/25LPvm8EewBGyfQQ1abIsE?si=wgVuY16XR0io4NLNo0A11A&nd=1RSS Feed: https://feeds.simplecast.com/MLdpYXYITranscript:OUTLINE00:00:00 “What is Money?” Intro00:00:08 The Ambiguity of Insanity00:02:52 The Example of the Zuni Cultural Immune System00:06:36 The Totalitarian Impulse of Left-Hemispheric Dominance00:10:16 Totalitarianism Rigidifies Due to Lacking Liquidity of Information00:13:18 The Autophagy of Capitalism and the Cancer of Central Banking00:17:40 Suffering as Attachment, Attachment as Static00:21:13 The Compass of Morality Up and Down the Stack of Static Value Patterns00:26:46 Demand as Dynamic Quality Generating the Static Quality of Supply00:32:16 NYDIG00:33:26 The Brujo and the Adaptivity of Ancient Zuni Culture00:39:19 Cultural Patterns of Static and Dynamic Good00:42:05 The Brujo as a Cultural Bridge Between Value Systems00:46:41 Action as the Purposive Exchange of Value to Create The Good00:48:14 Atonement as the Harmonization of Competing Intrapsychic Value Systems00:52:41 Viewing Value as Primary Calls into Question Every Prior Perception00:54:51 Hornevian Triads of Human Action in Respect to Volition00:57:23 The Emergence of American Values00:58:50 Incentive as the Ratio of Value Received to Value GivenSOCIALBreedlove Twitter: https://twitter.com/Breedlove22WiM?
