Transcendental consciousness is defined in another way by me. It's our capacity to be right and true by living on the path of truth, right and good. Self-control, self-master, self-governance, enlightenment are all about moral living at the highest level. We transcend the bio-nature subconscious unconscious way of living for our drives and motivations, and put truth and moral truth as our drive and motivation to create maximum freedom, peace and prosperity. No need for beliefs or dissolution of the self into nothingness, or no thinking emptiness.
