Hi Stephen P. King L's universe is a case of downward causation from the top (the One). So the top (the One) is absolutely necessary.

Dear Roger,
I disagree. The Humean idea of causation does not apply to Monads. Monads do not 'cause' changes in each other at all. Their perceptions just happen to be synchronous (and thus the possibility of bisimulation between them obtains and the appearance of exchange of information).
