Default Dominion Spread? Manual p. 94

Hello! My second-to-last newbie question here! THank you in advance.
In the manual, p. 94, you can read that "a temple check can spread dominion to provinces far away...". That confuses me, since the entire chapter speaks of spreading dominion to an "adjacent" providence. My English is not perfect, but I thought that this means "next to". How does it go far away?

After reading that chapter, I also have more questions. Here are some:
1. I am also somewhat confused as to how dominion spreads outward from an already "saturated" nation.
I mean, let's say that my max. dominion is 8 (my pretender had 6 and I have 11 temples up). Let's say that all the provinces in which I have temples are up to this max of 8. Let's say that a miracle happens and that I get 10 successful "temple checks". Since everytghing is at its max, and the neighbors may be at max too, where does the spread go to if "adjacent" is already full up?

2. Let's say I have a dominion influence of 3 in province X. But Pythium is nearby, preaching. His dominion flows into X too. On the same turn, Abysia makes some nice blood sacrifices nearby, and their influence plops into X too. How is the dominion "weighed up" against each other with more than 1 competitor? Do they all 3 cancel each other out, or first one and then the other (much like battles are reseovled when multiple armies move in simultaneously)?

3. If my pretender has 6 max dominion during creation process, and I have 10 temples up, I can have 8 total max dominion at any time. Let's say I have a bunch of provinces with 8 dominion. If I lose one temple on turn X (lets say due to one of those bad events), will ALL provinces at 8 immediately drop down to 7 on turn X or X+1?

Thank you
