Please see Clearing Subjects.
Once the subject titles are cleared, one is in a better position to answer the question:
“Which subject should I clear in full as a priority?”
To answer this question, we make a list newly of all the subjects we would like to clear fully as a priority. We arrange these subjects in the order we would like to clear them. We then focus on the subject at the top of the list.
.
Oneness
The purpose of subject clearing is to understand the subject as one whole entity. This wholeness or oneness implies that there is continuity, consistency and harmony among all concepts in that subject.
As this oneness is violated we have anomalies, such as, discontinuity (missing data), inconsistency (contradictory data), and disharmony (arbitrary data). Such anomalies are revealed when the key concepts of a subject are arranged on the gradient from broad to narrow starting from the purpose of the subject. This happens especially when we look at the concepts closely and contemplate on how they can be stated precisely and concisely. We see such anomalies in the subject of physics in which the concepts, such as, space, inertia and gravity are not quite clear and the key theories are yet to be unified.
As the definitions of the key words are studied closely and stated concisely with precision in the systematic manner of subject clearing, the anomalies start to resolve and people gradually become free from their doubts, anxieties, and misunderstandings relating to that subject.

Exercise 3: Clearing the Subject
Pick up the subject that you would like to clear the most. Make sure that you have already cleared the title of this subject. To clear the subject of misconceptions, we make a list of all the basic concepts special to that subject.
We write down the key words that represent those concepts. We look up these key words to understand their meanings. We arrange the key words on a list, such that the most fundamental, and broadest, concept appears at the top, followed by concepts that are gradually narrowing in their meaning, and becoming more specific.
We don’t have to complete this list right away. We start clearing the key words starting from the top. More concepts and new key words shall start coming into view as we proceed. We add new key words to the list in the appropriate logical sequence.
To clear a key word, we look up its root meaning and definition. We then use the AI to understand the underlying concept better. As we work through the sequence of key words from broad to narrow, we shall notice concepts that are missing, contradictory, overlapping, or arbitrary.
We research into the missing concepts. We may find these concepts not to be fully developed. It may require further research to develop them fully. Sometimes it may lead to a brand new research. We then add these concepts to the sequential list of the key words at the right location. Many realizations may come about during this process.
When we find contradictions between two adjacent concepts on the list, we work to establish a proper gradient between them. This may require looking closely at their definitions, updating and aligning them. Many realizations may come about as a result.
When the adjacent concepts overlap, we may find parts that are redundant. Sometimes, when the gradient between the two concepts appears forced or inappropriate, we examine the definitions for unverified arbitrary ideas. We then we get rid of such ideas. This may simplify the subject considerably and make it more streamlined.
We may, thus, develop comprehensive definitions for the key words. These definitions are then added to the alphabetical subject glossary. This will ultimately give us a comprehensive glossary that contains concise and precise definitions for that subject.
At first, the focus should be on working out the fundamentals of that subject, until you have defined the postulates that established the subject in the first place. Then come forward looking at subsequent concepts making sure that there is continuity, consistency and harmony among them. Do this until your attention is no longer getting stuck on that subject, and is free to consider other subjects.

Summary
The approach of Subject Clearing has resulted in this Book of Mathematics, that focuses on the fundamentals of the subject. Once the fundamentals of mathematics are cleared, a person can continue with the learning of higher mathematics very easily on a self-learning basis.
Subject Clearing is also being used to clarify the fundamentals of physics in The Book of Physics. This is a work in progress.
Subject Clearing is also responsible for the development of the new subject of Postulate Mechanics, which primarily deals with the fundamental concepts underlying the universe.
Where subject clearing is concerned, even the sky is not a limit.
