Please consider them as free extra tables of information. The original format has been changed. The original tables have been subject to being added to, edited, discontinued, improved, reformatted, renamed, revised, rewritten, and updated. And new and original tables have been added. Typically, the entry title in the table of contents comes from the title in the table; however, there are some exceptions because of space constraints, formatting considerations, or naming preferences. Like in the original version, this version is organized alphabetically. This book will not be available as an audiobook because it consists of tables of information that are visually orientated, difficult to represent verbally, and impossible to read grammatically without change.

However, they are optional for understanding or implementing the helpful insights, suggestions, and solutions provided. You can learn from any source you choose.

If you're interested in Plato, you're reading the wrong book. If you're interested in difficult childhoods, sexual misadventures, aesthetics, cultural history, and the reasons that a club sandwich and other meals--including breakfast--have remained in the memory of the present writer, keep reading. --from Feelings Are Facts In this memoir, dancer, choreographer, and filmmaker Yvonne Rainer traces her personal and artistic coming of age. Feelings Are Facts(the title comes from a dictum by Rainer's one-time psychotherapist) uses diary entries, letters, program notes, excerpts from film scripts, snapshots, and film frame enlargements to present a vivid portrait of an extraordinary artist and woman in postwar America. Rainer tells of a California childhood in which she was farmed out by her parents to foster families and orphanages, of sexual and intellectual initiations in San Francisco and Berkeley, and of artistic discoveries and accomplishments in the New York City dance world. Rainer studied with Martha Graham (and heard Graham declare, "when you accept yourself as a woman, you will have turn-out"--that is, achieve proper ballet position) and Merce Cunningham in the late 1950s and early 1960s, cofounded the Judson Dance Theater in 1962 (dancing with Trisha Brown, Steve Paxton, David Gordon, and Lucinda Childs), hobnobbed with New York artists including Robert Rauschenberg, Robert Morris (her lover and partner for several years), and Yoko Ono, and became involved with feminist and anti-war causes in the 1970s and 1980s. Rainer writes about how she constructed her dances--including The Mind Is a Muscleand its famous section, Trio A, as well as the recent After Many a Summer Dies the Swan--and about turning from dance to film and back to dance. And she writes about meeting her longtime partner Martha Gever and discovering the pleasures of domestic life. The mosaic-like construction of Feelings Are Factsrecalls the composition-by-juxtaposition of Rainer's work in film and dance, displaying prismatic variations from what she calls her "reckless past" for our amazement and appreciation.

A lot has changed since 2015, and Ben Shapiro has something to say about it. In this curated sequel to “Facts Don’t Care About Your Feelings,” Shapiro breaks down American politics from 2015 to today like you’ve never seen before. Review political dog fights and the Democrats’ radicalism problem through a poignant lens. Analyze the novel coronavirus and its economic implications through a perspective too often stamped out by the mainstream media. Explore the absurdities of “anti-racism,” “mostly peaceful” protests and other leftist attempts to rewrite America. And discover pieces of the American identity—unity, free speech, capitalism and so much more—we have lost in the mayhem.

You will find a repetition of concepts and insights because repetition and practice are the paths to mastery.

This interest led to a master’s-level course on General Semantics that required a thorough report on the book referenced immediately below. Korzybski, Alfred. Science and Sanity: An Introduction to Non-Aristotelian Systems and General Semantics, Fifth Edition. The International Non-Aristotelian Library Publishing Company, Lakeville, CT. 1958. Charlotte Schuchardt Read. Zen Buddhism, for example, Zen stories and koans, was another source for understanding semantics as being in the way of reality. Additionally, the Eastern philosopher J. Krishnamurti was instrumental in this regard. This book will be just another semantic exercise unless you bring your sensations to bear on it. The semantics tables explain how semantics control, destroy, and distort meaning. They provide information to help you recognize how semantics take over your identity, feelings, intentions, and thoughts. Discover the disastrous results of putting semantics in charge. • Please challenge everything we tell you. • You must test these insights to realize them. • You must apply the book’s insights to your life to prove them useful.

The original tables have been subject to being added to, edited, discontinued, improved, reformatted, renamed, revised, rewritten, and updated. There were thirty-nine entries in the website version. Now, there are ninety-six tables. The number of tables is the result of the writing process. Many tables are original creations for this book. Other new tables are based on 3D: Daily Dose of Discernment collections from 2022, 2023, and 2024. Some 3D: Daily Dose of Discernment entries in 2024 have been inspired by this book. The entry title in the table of contents comes from the title inside the table. Because of the space limitations imposed by the table format, sometimes the wording choices are not the first choices. Like in the original version, this version is organized alphabetically. This book will not be available as an audiobook because it consists of tables of information that are visually orientated, difficult to represent verbally, and impossible to read grammatically without change. Sensation Objects This book focuses on semantic objects as the root problem in human affairs. However, there also exist sensation objects. Sensation objects occur when a nonverbal or sensation memory points to itself instead of to something else, such as a response to a stimulus. The dynamics of sensation objects are the same as semantic objects: self-referential (closed system, fixated, looping). Sensation objects are memories of sensations without linguistic, semantic, or verbal content. Sensation objects can be formed during early childhood abuse or trauma when the child is preverbal and uses sensations to understand everything. A recommended approach to releasing sensation objects is to practice systematic desensitization therapy in a professional setting. For example, often post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in adults has components of semantic objects and sensation objects that need to be released (cleared, discharged, freed) for a full recovery. Mind-Moving (M-M) can help with releasing sensation objects and semantic objects. Please read Breathe or Mind-Moving (M-M): Healing’s Unifying Principle for more information. Some spirituality and religion are included in a few tables. However, they are optional for understanding or implementing the helpful insights, suggestions, and solutions provided. You can learn from any source you choose. Wisdom should be accepted wherever it is found. One should accept the truth from whatever source it proceeds. —Maimonides Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. —Philippians 4:8 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. —1 Thessalonians 5:21 All of the information in our books progresses over time.
