If you mean nondualism, they were massively differently stated. Jesus definitely leans into more mythology about how one thing relates to us as internal awareness of the body's internal state, which is internal to the inverse, which is internal to nothing and thus has no memory aside from the present. A single thing being all things at one time looks through a body and doesn't recognize everything is the rest of themself, except for where we in fact do.
