"Do not, as some careless shepherds do, show others the hard and narrow path to goodness, while you yourself wander freely down the easy road of pleasure — paying no heed to your own advice."

— Shakespeare in Hamlet, Act 1, Scene 3

"People turn their backs on those whose luck has run out."

— Shakespeare in Timon of Athens, Act 1, Scene 2

"When troubles arrive, they do not come one at a time — they come all at once, like an army!"

— Shakespeare in Hamlet, Act 4, Scene 5

Our THERAPEUTIC TOKEN solemnly unlocks the sacred seal
of our THERAPEUTIC TOPIC on growing boldly through HOLISTIC HEALING:
Right now, you are actively PROPAGATING your steady resolve to MANAGE MISFORTUNES.
You have already come far in CULTIVATING your courageous attempts,
and in IRRIGATING your fierce determination.
Before long, you will NURTURE your ennobling effort,
and ultimately REAP the reward of your living labour.

"Trust sparingly; for oaths are light as straw, a person's promises no thicker than a wafer — and the only true bond is a firm grip on one's own integrity."
— Shakespeare in Henry V, Act 2, Scene 3

A spirit of honest, fearless inquiry is the guiding star of BEYONDISM. To be a devoted Beyondist is not merely to love and seek wisdom (philosophy) — it is also to be lit from within by a philosophical sense of humour (hilarity). In every chapter of this journey, you will encounter the precise, plain-language definition of three key therapeutic words [KW] drawn from the trusted Encarta Dictionary (2009) [ED], delightfully seasoned by American satirist Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914) from The Devil's Dictionary (1911) [DD].

1st KW: DICTIONARY, noun.

ED: A reference book listing words in alphabetical order with their meanings, grammar, pronunciation, and origins.

DD: A harmful device for keeping language stiff and preventing it from growing naturally. This particular dictionary, however, is rather useful.

2nd KW: PHILOSOPHY, noun.

ED: The disciplined study of deep concepts such as truth, existence, reality, cause, and freedom.

DD: A collection of many roads, each leading from nowhere to nothing.

3rd KW: HUMORIST, noun.

ED: Someone known for being funny and quick-witted.

DD: A kind of torment that would have melted even Pharaoh's stubborn heart and made him cheerfully send Israel on its way.
