TRANSCENDING WITHOUT TRANSCENDENCE: AN INQUIRY INTO THE SOLITARY AND SPIRITUAL LIBERATION WITHOUT EXTERNAL INFLUENCE
Abstract
This research utilizes the hermeneutic method to inquire into the concept of transcending without transcendence, focusing on the possibility of solitary and spiritual liberation without external influences. The study aims to explore the anthropocentric quality inherent in this notion and examine its implications for personal growth and understanding. The objectives of this research are to understand the concept of transcendence and its association with spiritual liberation, investigates the potential for solitary transcendence independent of external influences, and analyze the findings to provide recommendations for individuals seeking spiritual liberation without transcendence. Through an in-depth exploration of philosophical, spiritual, and psychological perspectives, this research uncovers the paradoxical nature of transcending without transcendence. The findings reveal that solitary transcendence challenges traditional notions by emphasizing the individual's capacity for spiritual growth and transformation without reliance on external sources. It highlights the significance of introspection, self-reliance, and personal spiritual experiences in the pursuit of liberation. The research recommends individuals interested in solitary and spiritual liberation without external influence to engage in practices such as self-reflection, meditation, and contemplation. It encourages the cultivation of self-awareness and a deep exploration of personal beliefs, values, and experiences. The study also emphasizes the importance of integrating solitude with a sense of connection to others and the broader world suggesting the need for an ongoing dialogue and exploration of solitary transcendence within spiritual communities and academic circles. It calls for the consideration and recognition of diverse paths to spiritual liberation beyond traditional transcendent frameworks. The findings encourage individuals to explore the potential of solitary transcendence, while acknowledging the importance of balanced perspectives and the recognition of the interconnectedness of all beings.
