examples: 1986, G. Richter, Noetherian semigroup rings with several objects, G. Karpilovsky (editor), Group and Semigroup Rings, Elsevier (North-Holland), page 237,

f≨_(XY)g⇒h•f≨_(XY)h•g
for every h:Y→Z.
2001, Robert L. Vaught, Set Theory: An Introduction, Springer (Birkhäuser), 2nd Edition, Softcover, page 71,
Some simple facts and terminology about well-orders were already given in and just before 1.8.4. Here are some more: In a well-order A, every element x is clearly of just one of these three kinds: x is the first element; x is a successor element - i.e., x has an immediate predecessor; or x is a limit element - i.e., x has a predecessor but no immediate predecessor. The structure (∅, ∅) is a well-order.
2014, Abhijit Dasgupta, Set Theory: With an Introduction to Real Point Sets, Springer (Birkhäuser), page 378,
Definition 1226 (Von Neumann Well-Orders). A well-order X is said to be a von Neumann well-order if for every x∈X, we have x=y∈X|y<x (that is x is equal to the set Pred(x) consisting of its predecessors).
Clearly the examples listed by von Neumann above, namely
empty , empty, empty ,empty, empty ,empty,empty ,empty, …
are all von Neumann well-orders if ordered by the membership relation "∈," and the process can be iterated through the transfinite. Our immediate goal is to show that these and only these are the von Neumann well-orders, with exactly one von Neumann well-order for each ordinal (order type of a well-order). This is called the existence and uniqueness result for the von Neumann well-orders.
gloss: To impose a well-order on (a set).
pos: verb
tags: transitive
examples: The set of positive integers is well-ordered by the relation ≤.
1950, Frederick Bagemihl (translator), Erich Kamke, Theory of Sets, 2006, Dover (Dover Phoenix), page 111,
Starting from these special well-ordered subsets, it is then possible to well-order the entire set.
1975 [The Williams & Wilkins Company], Dennis Sentilles, A Bridge to Advanced Mathematics, Dover, 2011, page 182,
To carry the analogy a bit further, the axiom of choice implies the ability to well order any set.
Then #92;le#95;C is a well defined order on C, and (C,#92;le#95;C) belongs to #92;mathcal#123;X#125; (that is, #92;le#95;C well orders C) and is an upper bound for #92;mathcal#123;C#125;.

examples: It should be obvious by now that bhakti is not merely pious thoughts of "love" but rather fearless action. Nārada asks nothing less of the bhakta than complete surrender and complete dedication unto the will of Bhagavān. But if at any point one feels himself unable to reach the ideals taught by Nārada, he is not condemned. Lord Kṛṣṇa also says that if we cannot achieve the topmost surrender, then we should do what we can and try to progress gradually.
The offering of Bhakti is a specific activity, either mental or physical, through which a devotee can finally attain the knowledge of the Supreme Reality. So, Karma and Jñāna are not antagonistic to the Bhakti Mārga, rather, they are indispensable parts of it.
