HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT TRANSCENDENCE?
TRANSCENDENCE
Transcendence means existence or
experience beyond the normal or physical
level. It comes from the Latin prefix trans-,
meaning "beyond," and the word scandare,
meaning "to climb." When you achieve
transcendence, you have gone beyond
ordinary limitations.
TRANSCENDENCE
In religion, transcendence is the aspect of a
deity's nature and power that is wholly
independent of the material universe,
beyond all known physical laws. This is
contrasted with immanence, where a God is
said to be fully present in the physical world
and thus accessible to creatures in various
ways.
TRANSCENDENCE
the act of rising above something to a superior
state, having gone beyond ordinary
limitations; often used to describe a spiritual or
religious state, or a condition of moving
beyond physical needs and realities; and
fulfilling a goal.
