WHAT IS TRANSCENDING?

Discovering your true inner nature? You can do that with transcendence! An age-old meditation technique and also the most natural way to get to your inner self. Would you like to discover what it really means to be yourself? In this article, we tell you all about what transcendence is exactly.

What does transcendence mean?

Transcendence literally means 'transcending' or 'climbing'. It is about transcending our 'little self' so that we can make more meaning out of life. Rising above everyday reality so that we can experience a higher reality - or actually great mystery. An experience that many consider meaningful in their lives.

What is transcendence?

With transcendence, we try with so-called Transcendental Meditation techniques, to transcend thought and to naturally discover our inner self. The techniques are based on ancient knowledge and it has now been proven that this is the most efficient and natural way to discover your inner self.

It is a very special experience to experience once. It connects us to reality: that everything is connected and interdependent. An experience where your 'little self' takes a step back and individual successes are no longer the norm, but values like unity and connectedness.

How to transcend?

You can achieve the deep peace and connectedness that transcendence brings in several ways. There are several techniques, but one of the best-known ways is meditating with a mantra. This is a form of depth meditation where you don't have to do much yourself. You are guided by the mantra, and all you have to do is let go of control to discover your inner self.

Transcending with microdosing truffles

Another way to experience transcendence is by using microdosing truffles or participating in a truffle ceremony. You then use truffles during a meditation session under the guidance of people who know about them. In fact, truffles can very well help you detach your mind from earthly reality. With the right intention, guidance and aftercare, this combination can provide beautiful insights.

Due to its proven results, many today combine meditation with microdosing truffles. It is regularly used as a complementary tool for different types of transcendence exercises. Here you can think of meditation, psychonautics and psychedelic psychotherapy. Results vary widely and depend on the strain, dosage, individual setting and environmental factors.

In addition, microdosing with truffles can not only help you get closer to yourself. It also has a positive effect on depression, addictions and anxiety. Would you like to read more about this?

What can you achieve with transcendence?

Many people experience transcendence when they are hiking in nature. For many, these are those moments when we feel at one with the grandeur of our world. At the same time, we also feel that we are not the centre of the universe. In other words, our 'little self' resurfaces. Using transcendence, two things can actually happen:

1. Our sense of self disappears, including personal worries.
2. We feel a deep connection with other people and the world.

You can compare the feeling to when you are totally absorbed in something. For example, when you are writing a text, and you have no idea about time or yourself. A certain 'flow' you get into.

Perhaps the description remains a bit vague, but it is a feeling that is difficult to describe. In fact, it can only be experienced. So, our tip: try it out with microdosing truffles and experience what it is like to 'rise above yourself'. Enjoy the ride!
