Pre-established Harmony

Pre-established Harmony is a philosophical concept introduced by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in the 17th century. It suggests that there is a designed coordination between mind and body, where each functions independently yet mirrors the other perfectly. Leibniz proposed that God created the universe in such a way that the mental and physical realms operate in harmony without direct interaction. This idea helps explain how people can have coordinated thoughts and actions while maintaining the independence of mind and body, suggesting an underlying order in the universe, where everything works together according to a pre-set plan.
