    Sensory, beauty, taste, aroma, tactile feelings, auditory pleasure.

    Emotional, happiness, joy," sweet sadness", affectionate, encouragement.

    Knowledge/information, curiosity, sharing of information, organization of information, science, religion.

    Romantic, flattery, affection, sex, conversational stimulation.

    Technological, entertainments, creative outputs, games.

    Physical, exercise, health, diet, work.

    Monetary, work-pay, savings, technological attainments, buying, investing, charitable causes, utilitarian causes.

    Then those can exist within the spectrum of the phenomenal worlds, being from the micro, median, and macro world.

    I think I'll publish my categorization of phenomena : http://taoofthepsyche.blogspot.com/2013/04/categor...

    Within those there is the potential to find pleasure, indifference, or suffering.

    I thought up that categorization by watching tv and thinking of all the things in the commercials, till there weren't any left that I hadn't listed. A technological, informational, and emotional pleasure. xD
