The kernels of the aspects are displayed as a table in kernels.html.
Entities (pebbles, roses, sparrows, humans, etc.) function in some as subject, in others as object. The kernel meanings of the aspects are not always as Western Man would expect. Each aspect provides a different way of knowing (and also distinct things to know) and thus defines a special science, and also certain institutions, though these are secondary to their kernel meanings. Benefit comes from keeping them in balance; harm from ignoring or elevating one or from going against their laws.
Using these aspects aids clarification of complex issues. Human behaviour and living is multi-aspectual, which provides a means of understanding diversity of repercussions in the Shalom Hypothesis. This aids multi-disciplinary thinking and acting. They restore dignity to everyday activity (as opposed to 'scientific').
A discussion of what constitutes an aspect, as an aspect, can be found in the explanation page, to which the links above make reference. A discussion of what constitutes aspectuality - the aspectual concept, the whole set of aspects taken together - can be found in the aspectuality page. That pages also contains reference to other people's proposed sets of aspects.
