For your consideration, Leibniz's model of creation and Schroedinger's cat : its creation by a thought
There is an extensive discussion of Leibniz's model of creation on http://www.mun.ca/animus/1998vol3/scott3.htm the central point of which is "The subject of creation has long been recognized as central to Leibniz's philosophy. In general, the tendency has been to understand Leibniz's view of the creation of the universe as the actualization of a set of possible substances which stand together in a relation of pre-established harmony." Here we tentatively consider that model of creation, being here of matter from a thought, where the thought is intended by mind, and is represented by a complex quantum wave function (the monad of the cat). The thought is that of a cat, Schroedinger's cat. (see http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/Schrodingers-cat ), >From mind emerges the thought or monad of a possible cat, which is then >physically actualized.
