Hi Bruno Marchal  

OK, let's suppose that the numbers can be considered as ideas
in the mind of the One or the Supreme monad, which
is the monad for the universe. Then the universe 
would be the corporeal body. Or something like that.

Intensional numbers needs some universal numbers around to make sense.

They are. You can say that a game of life pattern does not look like a  
number too, but this is just an appearance. 



 I find the following unsatisfactory, 
 but since numbers are like ideas, they can be 
 in the minds of individual homunculi in individual monads, 
 but that doesn't sound satisfactoriy to me. 
 Not universakl enough. 

I don't get your point. I think you should study the theory of  
universal machine. I explain a bit of this on the FOAR list. 




 
 My best guess for now is that the supreme monad (the One) undoubtedly 
 somehow possesses the numbers. 

The supreme monad might be played by the universal number, but is not  
the one (God, arithmetical truth). 
Universal numbers are more the Plotinus' man. They are sigma_1  
complete. God, is sigma_i complete for all i.

Hi Bruno Marchal  

I think you're right. Anyway, I've since decided that the numbers
have to be simply a priori. Like the pre-established (a priori) Harmony.

Hmm... I don't think this can work. The supreme monads can only dream,  
the physical universe is when many universal numbers shared their  
dreams, in some manner. There is no ultimate corporeal body, at least  
not in the 'usual' sense, as some collection of dreams might point on  
something very similar. 
It is complex to explain the picture from scratch. It is simpler to  
get it by oneself by doing the reasoning. We will see. The supreme  
monad, as you define it, is just the 'man', or the L?ian universal  
machine (man is used in a very large but precise sense, it includes  
plausibly the jumping spiders). You have 8 hypostases: 

   God 
  Man Divine-Man 
   Soul 

Intelligible matter Divine intelligible Matter 
Sensible Matter Divine Sensible Matter 

You supreme monad might be played by the Man or the Divine-Man, or  
Divine-Intellect (it is Plato's No?). 
Read some of my papers perhaps, but you might need to study a bit of  
logic and computer science for this.
