TRANSCENDENCE

Transcendence does not
Require the hero's quest
It does not require climbing
Vast, distant mountains
It does not even require
Achieving godhood

It merely means the
Transcendence of self
Overcoming the person you are
To a level beyond
A quantum jump in personal evolution
You don't need a god for that
