Self-help is not the same as spirituality IMO. Self-help is about making practical improvements to your life. It is a different area of work than spirituality, although there is overlap. Spiritual people often don't like self-help because they deny that a self exists to help. They think it is entirely ego-driven.

I agree. But people can be taught how to do survival better which is the goal of self-help.

@TheGreekSeeker Good to see you.

@Human Mint Yes. And functional harmony has a melodic aspect to it too. It is like a slow melody.

Yes. Blues generally has 3 chords too. Jazz is kind of an extension of Blues in that it adds more harmonic complexity.

Each genre in music is an artform that has its own rule set or what artists call tropes. Rock is different than Jazz, Jazz is different than Indian Classical Music, Post Rock is different than R&B. Some forms of music are heavily centered around harmony like Jazz but some forms are less so such as drum circle music. Even harmony is not always emphasized in all music. Some music has very little rhythm comparatively like Western Classical Music. It is interesting how the musical variables are seen in light of a particular genre of music. Rock is more focused on lyrics whereas Jazz is more focused on tone for example. You can get away with playing 3 chords in Punk Rock. And also the use of distortion in Rock differs from the pure tones in Jazz.

Notice the impossible, no way, cannot in this communication.

Of course.

This is a good video for a lot of this. There is more to it of course.

Nothing to add but your response. That should be acknowledged. Our response.

I was focusing on where you said you put a period on the discussion. No worries. Maybe it is a miscommunication.

I'm sure lol.

Did you determine this or did you rely on his insight or both? Just curious.

I feel the opposite. But this is the magic of taste. Everyone has their own.

It is an extension of the tradition of empiricism in western philosophy.

It is good to stick with the forum. This video explains the issue pretty well IMO.

It would have to be the one imagining, right?

Are you sure? How would you know?

This one I am a little concerned about. Clip #577 - There Is No Basis Between Reality And Hallucination

The fabric of who's reality?

Einstein's story might compete with your story?

The old font is better IMO.

There is no duality between them.
