According to Leibniz, all monads more complex than rocks have memory. And human monads and apparently some animal monads (dogs) have some ability to indirectly access other minds, since monads are not located in space, but simply mentally. So you the personal subconscious has at least theoretical access to Universal Mind. This is Jung's Universal Unconscious
http://www.angelfire.com/md2/timewarp/leibniz.html Each monad has a plurality of properties and relations, which constitutes its perception. Each monad has its own perceptions which differ from the perceptions of other monads. Perceptual changes are constituted by the internal actions of monads. Leibniz describes three levels of monads, which may be differentiated by their modes of perception A simple or bare monad has unconscious perception, but does not have memory. A simple or ordinary soul is a more highly developed monad, which has distinct perceptions, and which has conscious awareness and memory. A rational soul or spirit is an even more highly developed monad, which has self-consciousness and reason (both of which constitute "apperception"). http://www.mith.demon.co.uk/leibniz.htm Ab111 The Rosicrucian framework of Chrysal. How the sprit of the gold remains the same, despite additions and subtractions to its matter and the changes in its form. This is surely reminiscent of Leibniz's monads? Ruth Saw (Leibniz) points out that Leibniz's metaphysics sits well into modern ideas about telepathy and other psychic phenomena. But even more, perhaps, it chimes in with certain Rosicrucian and Swedenborgian conceptions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
