Ark - where are you headed?
Richard:
Have I got this right?
A monad is the simplest structure and comprises of two 'entities', say 0 and 1.
The simplest groupoid has two 'entities', again 0 and 1.
But nothing works unless there's a trinity? We can have the universe flickering on and off but that in itself is useless unless there's a 'binding' agent, something that gives everything coherence.
So a monad or groupoid or anything for that matter has to have a 3rd element, be it consciousness or gravity or nuetron or whatever?
Am I anywhere in the ballpark?

Fwiw- I was looking at the transformation as the third principle.

There are two transformations being described as "do nothing" (law of 3 passive) and "change to the other one" (law of 3 active). The law of 3 neutral third principle is being linked to the central loop being formed by the transformations (a Greek triad egg of sorts). This monad egg perhaps grows into more types of transformations.

I was thinking that the monad as a totality is a trinity of some kind but it would still be a whole unit. Maybe any whole unit (including the most fundamental ones) are all monads such as a cell, or a human being, a planet, galaxy etc. Maybe even the entire universe itself. Regarding the blinking off and on I was thinking that perhaps it might be more like a kind of oscillation between two points or perhaps a spinning of some kind. Don't know though, just speculating here.
caballero reyes:
Hi, Ark. Are the Leibnitz concepts of monads refered to two classes of atoms: physics and metaphysics? or he considered to ALL atoms are monads.
