[10h] Name this central Neoplatonist text, which was compiled by Porphyry and records the ideas of Plotinus.

ANSWER: the One [or the Monad or Henosis or the Form of the One or the Form of Unity or the Form of Simplicity or the Form of the Good]
[10e] The conceptual similarity of “the One '' to a single God made neoplatonism popular among theologians like Origen, who belonged to this religion. Neoplatonist metaphysics proved especially fruitful in developing this religion’s doctrine of the Trinity.
