immanentní

Immanentní is a philosophical term derived from the Latin word "immanere," meaning to dwell in or remain within. It describes something that is inherent, intrinsic, or contained within a thing or system. In contrast to transcendent, which suggests existing outside or beyond, immanent qualities are inseparable from the subject itself. For example, in theology, the immanence of God refers to the belief that God is present and active within the universe and all of creation, rather than being solely external to it. Philosophically, an immanent property is one that is essential to the nature of the object possessing it. This concept is frequently explored in discussions of metaphysics, religion, and ethics, where the distinction between what is inherent and what is external significantly shapes understanding. An immanent process is one that occurs entirely within a given framework, without external influence.
