ECSTASY

Transcendence is immanence become self-aware.  The Self that transcends, i.e., raises itself to itself as Consciousness, is beyond all of its appearances of self.  It is ecstatic, from the Greek, "ek-stasis," meaning "to stand outside of."  So the Self in transcendence stands outside itself, outside those appearances which are only its manifestations.  There is nothing wrong or undesireable about these manifestations, unless we see them as more ourselves than that Self which is the Source of all appearances.
