Leibniz and Proclus teach the fundamentals of multiversal travel

[amnoobplzhelp]

wielding appetition, intent, perpsective, and devotion a Monad can propel itself through higher dimensions towards a more ideal universe.

 

[Nembra]

There is nothing more tethering to this universe than the idea that it ought be escaped.

Do you have more detail? I'm not sure "appetition" is a real word...

the beauty of this framework is that it is not escape; it is transformation through commited effort over time.

Willhelm Gottfried Leibniz defines "appetition" within his work Monadology; available here

That's more a matter of chosen nomenclature, really. This kind of thinking lies on the same major branch of the Tree of Knowledhe as mainline Buddhism. That is by no means an unequivocal criticism, but this position is burdened with some major philosophical difficulties.

Can you please explain this idea in plainer terms? If you could take it step by step.

It is what increases when a ghost gets stoned .... otherwise known as ' afterlife munchies ' .

Just stick with Proclus part (in the title ) - a major intellectual foundation of the Western Esoteric Tradition .


[ He argued that physical rituals, traditional invocations, and cosmic symbols (such as using specific herbs, stones, and "magic wheels") were necessary ; mages built their entire systems of Hermetic and ceremonial magic directly on top of Proclus’s theories of cosmic sympathy ( a lot of that thanks to Ficino translating him ) ; GD and Crowley 'stuff' were rooted directly in Neoplatonic concepts organized by him. ]

summary ;
No, Leibniz did not argue that a monad can propel itself through higher dimensions to reach a more ideal universe. While the OPs premise uses actual terms from his metaphysical work The Monadology (1714)—namely appetition and perspective—the concepts of self-propulsion through physical dimensions and moving toward a different, more ideal universe actually contradict the core laws of his philosophy.
