# The Correspondence The world is mental. An individual mind is isomorphic to the whole world. Understanding god is understanding your mind. And vice versa. The unified Self corresponds to Monad. Each part of the Self corresponds to Nous, Anima Mundi, Cosmos. The 4 alchemical stages mean going through the upper way of the tree of life in Qabalah. Cosmos -> Anima Mundi -> Nous -> SELF. The creation is isomorphic to how the mind has formed.
