In transcending one's own individuality, we have, among other things, a social dimension, but also a transcendence of the social dimension. We have a dimension of unification with the other: (1) with another individual, (2) other individuals, (3) the environment, (4) all beings: nature; the animal kingdom, the plant kingdom, in short, with even the totality. We may find such transcendences of the self, ridiculous, but this is, as Sartre and others argues, typical of being human! Perhaps this is not unique to being human. But in any case, "human behavior" has this transcendence of this "self."
