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.
