Transsubjectivity is the term used by Stace to describe the common connection outcome whereby the individual perceives themselves to make contact with, merge with, a transcendent subjective reality outside their personal self.[1] In LP terms, the experience and apprehension of Connection/Union with the Spiritual Ego or some other location within The Fabric.

Notes
The individual, having suppressed all empirical mental content, arrives at a pure unity, a pure consciousness, which is also the pure ego. It might be supposed that what he thus reaches is his own individual pure ego. But he reports the further fact that this self, which seems at first to be his own private self, experiences itself as at once becoming one with or becoming dissolved in an infinite and universal self. The boundary walls of the separate self fade away, and the individual finds himself passing beyond himself and becoming merged in a boundless and universal consciousness.[2]
The poem I Am/We Are is an expression of Kensho, the initial realization that one's true identity arises from the Spiritual Ego.
