Transcendence T
A
Designed by Acid artist Karen Shek, this limited edition t-shirt plots the 'Path to Transcendence' through running.
"Humans have always sought to elevate themselves above their ego or 'self', in the hunt for truth.
"With running we can achieve this rapidly, as with only a few hours of controlled suffering we can practically eviscerate the ego."

"Empedocles teaches us that if we can cut free of impressions that cling to the mind, free of the future and the past, we are as a moving sphere, rejoicing in perfect stillness.
"From this stillness, clarity emerges."

"The transcendent runner exists within this new plane, where the contradictions of love and strife, motion and stillness, suffering and peace, are all in harmony."
"Here we finally understand ourselves and our relation to the world around us."
