Psychology of Transcendence

General

In general, the psychology of transcendence refers to surpassing general or mainstream limits of abilities and conceptions. Since abilities start with one's mindset - learning of new skills or cracking through one's limits of consciousness is a psychological process.

The following are properties and mindsets of Transcendent people (T) and non-transcendent people (L):

Teaching and Learning

• T: Anything is learnable in a rapid fashion when a master of a certain skill is teaching.
• L: "It took me decades of practice, I can't explain it to you because it is too hard to understand"

Commentary: The L-Type does not understand the subject matter sufficiently if s/he claims that it is 'too hard to understand.' This is because the indicator of true mastery is the ability to teach (ie, one cannot teach what one does not understand. The T-type person can assess the learning capacity of a person, and while the T-type can teach those who are ready to learn, the T-type person also understands that it is not possible to teach someone who is not interested in learning.
