“… I think that the flight from and hatred of technology is self-defeating.  The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of a mountain or in the petals of a flower.  To think otherwise is to demean the Buddha — which is to demean oneself.”

Robert Pirsig, Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance
