What is the point of the lake analogy used to explain Transcendentalism?
Even though you can't see the edges of the lake, it's still there even though you can't imagine it. Use your imagination.
The bottom of the lake symbolizes the limited reach of the mind's imagination.
Even though you can't physically touch the bottom of the lake, it's still there and your mind can't imagine it. Transcend your body's limits and just be.
The lake symbolizes the universe.

She tells him the John is in a better place and that John has now transcended. Transcending is something they can look forward to after death.
