543. Transcendence

```

Self-transcendence

And

God-transcendence

Are the Self-form

Of the same transcendental Reality.

When I endeavour to fathom

My self-transcendence

With my human comatose eyes,

I see the radical transformation

Of the devouring tiger in me

Into the fast-running, sure-winning deer.

And when I plead with the Supreme

To elucidate the signification

Of transcendence, He just smiles

And declares:

“Yours is the transcendence-task

To touch the feet of My creation

For its fire-pure transformation.

Yours is the transcendence-goal

Where the comity of souls have discovered

Their only haven.” ```
