lack of boundary; borderless; confluence
Primarily a technical term in psychology, referring to a state of undifferentiated self-other boundaries or a merging of psychological boundaries. The glosses 'borderless' and 'confluence' are specific to psychological contexts.
In a state of lack of boundary, the distinction between self and other becomes blurred.
In this theory, borderlessness is considered a psychological characteristic of infancy.
Compound of 無 (mu, 'without') and 境界 (kyōkai, 'boundary'). The term is used in psychology to describe a state of undifferentiated self-other boundaries.
