Leibniz's Monadology

Leibniz's Monadology describes the universe as made up of simple, indivisible units called monads. Each monad is like a tiny, non-physical soul that reflects the entire universe from its own perspective. They do not interact directly but change in harmony through a pre-established divine order, like a well-orchestrated symphony. Monads are the fundamental building blocks of reality, constantly evolving and expressing themselves uniquely, creating the grand, unified fabric of existence. This view sees the universe as a collection of independent, conscious centers that together produce the complexity and harmony we experience.
