interbecoming (inter-becoming)

(noun, adjective) The vast, interrelated dynamism of coming to be, or mutual becoming, which characterizes reality as it is. Everything has a definite (though always new), emerging, evolving, and changing relationship with every other thing in the entire cosmos. This is a technical term that describes the interdependent co-arising of all phenomena, or in the words of the Buddha: 'When this exists, that comes to be, with the arising of this, that arises.
When this does not exist, that does not come to be, with the cessation of this, that ceases.'

There is no such thing as anything that is disconnected from everything else, and there is no such thing in the universe (including the universe!) that is the same in two consecutive moments. If being (or interbeing) means anything, it means that we mutually become, we interbecome. (NOTE: Interbecoming is a replacement word for Thich Nhat Hanh's interbeing because the latter, containing the root word 'being.' implies too static an understanding of reality.)
When we abandon false notions that we are separate and permanent individuals and come to understand that we are all interrelated with all other beings, we begin to understand the meaning of interbecoming (inter-becoming).

The interbecoming (inter-becoming) of my person is inexorably intertwined with the interbecoming of your person-- and the interbecoming of both of us is only possible because we participate in the vast interbecoming of the entire cosmos..

Interbecoming (inter-becoming) is the ineradicable nature of all that is; all that is has an interbecoming (inter-becoming) nature.

The opposite sequel of the meme Mr. Incredible Becoming Old, where Mr. Incredible travels to the future timelines and progressively becomes more and more evolved with those said future generations as the phases go to the next level. Just like Mr. Incredible Becoming Old, the meme was used for the POV of everything existing in the present up to the most futuristic one possible depicted by our present selves, because tbh, we don't even know if our depiction of things in the future are somewhat accurate.

The official template for the meme was created by MexicoEmpireFOREVER
Mr. Incredible Becoming Futuristic (POV: Your pet)
Meme starts with the picture of a random dog then eventually becomes a gigantic teleporting transformer robot as the last one
