Every time an individual questions their experience, they transcend within this exceeding.
Questioning about good is exceeding, questioning about evil is exceeding, questioning about life is exceeding, questioning about death is exceeding, questioning about consciousness is exceeding, questioning about sensibility is exceeding, questioning about silence is exceeding.
Everything that entails questioning implies growth into the exceeding.
There are people who are aware of this exceeding, who feel it and are elevated to a superior state of consciousness and heart. Yet, there are many others who are not, because they do not question with metaphysical interest—an interest in transcending the material, which is utterly inadequate to respond to the sense of existence.
When an individual begins to feel the exceeding, they become caught in it. It allows them to recognize themselves within it. The individual is drawn to a broader horizon, one they are about to inhabit. They perceive it—perceive it through what is happening around them, through the way their life’s horizon is changing. It becomes a sort of augmented dimensionality that they catch sight of in their proximity.
The individual becomes caught in a "thereness" they sense from many signs, and above all, from a voice within the heart.
The individual lives in the saeculum, yet at the same time strongly feels that they belong to a different horizon—one vaster than the one they currently inhabit.

As Saint Augustine explains Et cum te primum cognovi, tu assumpsisti me ut viderem esse, quod viderem, et nondum me esse, qui viderem "And when I first came to know you, you lifted me up so that I might see the being I could see, though I was not yet the being I could see"
If we are to find the proper words to describe it, we could say that the exceeding has no appearance, no form, and is no entity (ὄν). It is only what is feelable, perceivable, and "heartable"—that is, realizable within the heart.
