Endnote: A doubt may arise in mind regarding the benefits of a mere list of topics. The reality first: it is extremely beneficial. A big problem in life in general and Seeking in particular is familiarizing our self with any environment. Acting upon the demands of the environment comes second. That too is difficult but process of familiarization makes it easy to a very large extent.
