Transcendicant:
One who dedicates their life to continuous, incremental all-self-improvement
- To seek the highest state of self freedom
- To grow resilient enough to hold and learn from all experience: the undesired, the shameful, the confused
- To sit in the discomfort of ultimate uncertainty, incompleteness, wrongness and unknowing
- To observe shame as the instinct to hide one’s wrongness from others and self
- To discern and accept the utility of self-stories, ego-delusion and social programming, the useful illusions
- To continuously renew the facts and data of being and re-tell only the smallest story necessary to act in the world
- To discard unneeded illusions and imagine beyond today’s useful illusions
- To create new ways of thinking, new ways of being, new useful illusions
- To be free of judgement of those who refuse to imagine beyond their current illusions
- To consider the inevitability of one’s future wrongness in present actions
- To feel the wrongness that arises when a useful illusion justifies hurting others
- To love, accept and understand all conscious beings, including one’s own self
- To observe anger as the instantaneous choice to refuse hurt
