Esoteric interpretation
Omnipotence expresses a radical contrast with the limits of ordinary human agency. In the map’s spiritual language, ultimate realization is associated with capacities that seem unconstrained by everyday conditions. This is an idealized attribute, not a practical power assigned to every practitioner. Religious and philosophical traditions disagree about its meaning, and the label alone does not define a mechanism for controlling reality.
