transhumanism

Julian Huxley, author of Evolution: The Modern Synthesis, began his 1957 essay titled ‘Transhumanism’ with these words: “As a result of a thousand million years of evolution, the universe is becoming conscious of itself, able to understand something of its past history and its possible future. This cosmic self-awareness is being realized in one tiny fragment of the universe—in a few of us human beings.”

transcend

In Panosophy, transcend is an intransitive verb meaning ‘to be in union with Transcendent Divine we all share’, as Cosmic Consciousness. As a transitive verb, transcend ‘to go beyond limits’ is the opposite of immanse ‘to go within limits’, when an individual entirely transcends all divisions in the relativistic world of form.

Transcendence

In Panosophy—in which there are no divisions between science, philosophy, and theology—Transcendence is the quality of the Divine that surpasses the boundaries of the world of form, as the Cosmic Context of the Universe, and hence of all our lives.

In union with Immanence, Transcendence is Ineffable, quite impossible to express further in words or even concepts. Wholeness just is.
