“Iminent” means that something is happening momentarily.

Being unfamiliar with that particular iteration, I’ll have to take your word for it.

‘Immanent’, now, is a word I do know, as is ‘imminent’. Fwiw.

Well, my apologies. I looked it up and there is a word, "immanent": Definition of IMMANENT 1: indwelling, inherent 2: being within the limits of possible experience or knowledge — compare transcendent — im·ma·nent·ly adverb I guess that could work.
