| transformation | a complete change in someone or something. In mathematics, a rule for changing a geometric figure or algebraic expression into another, usually accompanied by a rule for transforming it back. In geometry and topology, a transformation (e.g., flipping horizontally or vertically, rotating, or stretching vertically or horizontally) moves each point in a figure or graph to another position. A graph also undergoes a transformation when its coordinate system is changed. For example, the equations that establish a correspondence between the rectangular and polar coordinate systems constitute a transformation. In analysis, a transformation is a procedure that changes one function into another. Of special interest in many fields of mathematics are transformations forming a group, in which any two transformations applied successively produce the same result as another transformation in the group and each transformation has an inverse transformation (which undoes it) in the group.

| transformation | A "transformation" is a process that changes a document or object into another, equivalent, object according to a discrete set of rules This includes conversion tools, software that allows the author to change the DTD defined for the original document to another DTD, and the ability to change the markup of lists and convert them into tables | en | en |

| transformation | A transformation takes an SGML document and transforms it into a different SGML document More than one document can be used as input or produced as output A transformation consists of three processes:the grove builder takes an SGML document as input and produces a grove;the transformer takes the constructed grove, applies the associations from the transformation specification and produces one (or more) result groves;the SGML generator verifies each result grove to see if it is valid; if this is the case, it generates an SGML document or subdocument See Also association | en | en |

| transformation | the act of moving the ensouling entity from one nodal point to the next is called primary or essential transformation Other secondary types of transformation can bring about perceptual, cognitive, functional, and behavioral changes These secondary types of transformation can be be facilitated by psychotherapy, hypnosis and meditation techniques But the essential transformational change that occurs at the level of the ensouling entity and its vehicles is fundamental and necessary for spiritual growth Essential transformation can be brought about by transformational techniques such as bija mantra, Kriya Yoga, Nada Yoga, and Kundalini Yoga Essential transformation is also produced by Translation, or Light Immersion | en | en |
