The belief or philosophy that if you become the best version of yourself or complete a divine mission, (esp. advancing humanity spiritually / intellectually / technologically to become a type 5 + civilization, on The Kardashev Scale), you can apotheosize (ascend to godhood / your higher-self), in the highest plane of existence, beyond the confines of the physical one, during the afterlife.
'Those who follow transcendentalism, believe that in order to be physically closer to the gods and live in their realm for eternity, we must advance our technology / clock The Kardashev Scale.'

A person who has contracted (Leena Disease). Many of the unfortunate victims of the LD can experience the Transbender effect. Typically a victim will suffer from anxiety and eventually depression. It is most common amongst skinny teens with ages ranging from 13-17. Most cases of Transbenderism is the transformation one may have from being a heterosexual male to a Femboy. The name Transbender comes from the transition between beta male to femboy. The first steps of becoming a transbender is wearing eyeliner and painting nails black. LD is strongly related to wannabe emo’s with a feminine touch. Cases of Transbenderism are no longer reversible since it is a physiological issue.

Get the transgender mug.The transcendentalists lived mostly in or around New England during the years shortly before the Civil War. The prevalent state of mind at that time was that religion (Jewish and Christian) was something rooted in dogma which simply must have been true, for it had been practiced that way for years. However, the transcendentalists dared to dig beneath---nay, beyond--the doctrines and explore sacred texts and canons outside of tradition, as well as explore their own spirituality. The transcendentalists sought to rebel against typical European classic and contemporary literature, to diverge from the dry, crumbling tomes of old and dip their fingers into romance and adventure and every other little brook sketching out across this new (or reborn) frontier, fiction, of personal spiritual exploration, of peculiarly poetic prose pondering on creation, nature, whatever surrounded him or her...
...Those around the transcendentalists were not so bold. They preferred to stay within the confines of their strictly corseted literature, where they were safe from marring influences that could taint the purity of their perfect art. They were frightened of rebuke, and thus they mocked the transcendentalists and all they stood for, never bothering to step beyond what they, their parents, and their parents' parents had been raised on from the breast on up to adulthood. The transcendentalists scorned such sheeply thinking in their own way, slapping the fleshy red cheek of the slave-owning, high-hat, dogma-pushing, nationalistic, jingoistic, verging-on-capitalist matron that was 19th century American society.
"As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives."
~Henry David Thoreau
