like Plotinian emanations of each other.
Neil Wright
Plotinus's most important concept is "The One," a supreme, transcendent entity that is the source of all reality. It is described as beyond being, indivisible, and the ultimate good. According to Plotinus, everything that exists emanates from "The One" in a hierarchical manner. First, there is the Intellect, which contains the Forms (archetypes of all things). Then comes the Soul, which animates the material world.
