i was thinking just now about how non-dualism posits that all is one and it made me think of this episode of adventure time ‘everythings jake’. i have a question at the end of this btw.
If you don’t know, jake is a dog with the ability to manipulate his body to grow in mass and change form in all sorts of novel ways.
in this episode, jake was knitting, when a strange wizard injects him with a potion which causes him to fall asleep and melt into his body.
When he wakes, he realises he is in a world made of his own flesh.
in this world there is an organised society of people, with citizens, politicians and scientists etc, playing different roles and living seperate lives.
In the city, the people worship and praise Jake, dedicating festivities and decorating the city hall with murals and art all in his name.
However upon jakes return, earthquakes begin to occur and so the mayor calls Jake to meet with scientists to diagnose the problem. Jake says the problem is simple; he is hungry and so his tummy is rumbling, causing the quakes. Despite Jake and his divine authority, the scientists are skeptical, because it is quote “anecdotal evidence”.
Jake proves his point by asking the scientists to mention food, causing a quake to occur. With this in mind, one of the scientists propose that if Jake was to leave this world for food, the world in which they live would seize to exist. In fear of total destruction, they imprison Jake so he cannot reconstitute this world back into himself.
With Jake imprisoned, the scientist embark on a journey to escape the confines of their world to find the food for Jake to satiate his hunger.
Once outside of his world, a new world emerges, with unfamiliar colors and textures and beings. In this new world, he hopes to find a god to give him food for jake.
Instead of finding a divine, beautiful god, he finds a hideous creature instead. In complete despair he melts back into Jake.
The question i have is about our world. I have had this thought before but struggle to phrase it. Is there anything beyond ‘jake’ or god, or is this an incorrect way to think?
Is the equivalent of transcending our world, or transcending jake, what people call the ascension to ‘5D’ or ‘12D’ or whatever?
