Talk:Interbeing Manipulation/@comment-37725040-20190117171437/@comment-24729606-20190119034759

while I do admit these two power, abilities, or whatever one chooses to call them are quite similar there are a few differences but I think it would suffice to state the one that (to me at least) seems the most significant. immanence is defined, described, or however one chooses to think of it on this wiki as "the quality of being contained within, or remaining within the boundaries of something such as a person, thing, world, universe". the key word I would say is contained and the understanding seems to be that things, people, and so on are contained and independent entities at some level. on the other hand interbeing manipulation is the ability to control, change, alter, and (if one so choses) remove and/or erase the connection between something(s)/someone(s). now I think most people with even a modicum of intelligence can agree that everything in existence relies (to some extent and in some manner/fashion) on everything else. if this is indeed so beyond the purview of our experience and not just another illusory concept we have accepted as fact then it means that things are not contained or thought of as isolated in a real sense of the word. that is a nutshell (a turn of phrase popularized by if not actually invented by William Shakespeare by the way) is the difference between immanence and interbeing and by (hopefully logical) extension of their respective manipulatory powers.
