Morphology

supramental = mental (semi-transparent) = supra + mental

Formed by the prefix 'supra-' + 'mental', so the composition is clear, but the resulting philosophical/specialized sense is not fully predictable for an average learner.

Etymology

Supramental combines supra- 'above' and mental 'mind', so it describes a level of thinking or awareness that is 'above' the ordinary mind.
