Transhumanism 

A movement supporting the use of reason, science and technology to advance and enhance human abilities and existence under optimal conditions. Can be see as an extension of humanism, but with much more emphasis on the future. Transhumanists believe that we should try to overcome our biological limitations thru the use of such things as nanotechnology, cryonics, AI, mind uploading, space-time engineering, eugenics, and what not in order to become posthuman.
The goal of transhumanism to become more than human.

Esoteric Transhumanism 

Esoteric Transhumanism, shortened to Esoh+ and also refered as Spiritual Transhumanism, shortened to Spirith+, is a transhumanist ideology that advocates the overcoming human problems with technological advancement. But Esoteric Transhumanism isn't afraid to go further, beyond the realms of the physical, rational and logical but also the realms of the magical, esoteric, spiritual, extraphysical and even divinial. Esoteric Transhumanism advocates transhumanist ideologies such as Technodeism, Extraphysicism and Divinialism, considering them as parts of Esoteric Transhumanism.
"Esoteric Transhumanism is a nice way to end the fear spiritual people have of transhumanism, but still, it is necessary the development of the esoteric transhumanist technologies for spiritual people start joining it completely."

"Esoteric Transhumanism shows that another transhumanist path is possible, and spiritual people should embrace it."

You replace your arm with completely mechanical parts.

You implant computer parts into your brain to calculate mathematical problems faster. You are now Transhumanist.

You inject yourself with synthetic blood components that include stronger immunology, better termination of rogue cells and molecules, better gas transport. You are now a Transhumanist.
