macrocosmos and micro cosmos
Each “Monad”, in turn, is to some degree the centre of the entire Universe. In seeing troops, moving into battle, he saw them, as so many worlds in conflict. He urged that if we could per impossible migrate to another consciousness:”we would change our world «he felt discomfort with another person:”because his Universe is closed to mine” He “seems to shatter the silence of the world”. Accordingly, he told of each individual having his own religion. And God Himself is” pluri-providential”; that is, there are “as many independent providence as there are world. In this context of Idealism, and of individual worlds that he tells of world salvation. Salvation is affirmed in a striking sentence:”In each soul, God loves and partly saves the whole world witch that soul sums up in an incommunicable and particular way” That is, the world that is saved is the world that has been summed up in the minds of each individual, the private worlds, to which Teilhard abundantly referred. Only the world that was summed up as a world could be saved. The salvation of the world requires that it first become mind or spirit. And it can do this only through the work of particular individual.

could you explain a bit more
For Teilhard, the noosphere emerges through and is constituted by the interaction of human minds. You said that Each “Monad”, in turn, is to some degree the centre of the entire Universe. How is it possible to connect all the different minds.
Could you please explain a bit more.

connection: macrocosmos and micro cosmos
Nobody can force anyone to connect all the different minds; But every mind in turn can decide to connect the entire world or a certain consciousness, or "state" . It's a matter of will, as well as behaviour/way of life or "state" and practice ("...... And it can do this only through the work of particular individual...").

It's easy but requires patience. One way is meditation as a start; weather using a religeous way or not ( but then in the last case, still spiritual)
Then it depends too weather it's your time or not or, if you are ready or not...

continuation of Teilhard's thoughts:"For Teilhard, the basic human task is “the spiritualization of the Universe «and for its part the Universe is striving to becoming psyche or idea. Spiritualization might sound like an esoteric process. It is not. The more familiar name is Research. For Teilhard research refers particularly to the work of the scientist, but it is also the work of every human. Scientific research is praised as a «vital function” involving a mystical hope. Research is the solemn, prime occupation of man, now adult. But each individual does research into the world. Research must begin with an idea, an hypothesis, a tentative way of seeing a unity in the universe. One must then test the hypothesis: in the world of matter: this is research. One turn to matter, not to dissolve in it as the foundation of the Universe were material. This is what he was doing before the reversal that he recounted in his first essay. Now in going back to matter, he goes with an idea in mind (having an idea in mind would not be an acceptable path for Buddhist Nirvana); as a scientist he would go back to matter only with the intention of returning to the hypothesis and know if was verified
The second element that many do not recognize in Teilhard is a radical individualism that is associated with his Idealism. This is evident when he claims” each one of us has in reality, his own universe. He is the centre and he is called upon to introduce harmony into it” (W. 239). He wrote in a letter to his cousin” I am accustomed to living in my own univers”5M.M. 240). He would write two essays titled, “My Universe”. He assumed others also lived in their world:” every man forms a little world on his own!”(M.M.202). He would sometime speak of people as “Monads”, a philosophical term that suggests radically self-contained units.” Each monad, in turn is to some degree the centre of the entire universe” (W.208) in seeing troops moving into battle he saw them as, “so many worlds, in conflict” (M.M.218). He urged that if we could per impossible migrate in another consciousness “we would change our world” (D.M.141).He felt discomfort with another because ”his Universe is closed to mine, he seems to shatter the silence of the world for me”(D M.143) .Accordingly he told of each individuals having his own religion .And God himself is his own “pluri-providential”; that is there are “as many independent providences as there are world”(W.238). It is in this context of idealism and of individual worlds that he tells of the world’s Salvation Salvation is affirmed in a striking sentence: “in each soul, God loves and partly saves the all world which that soul sums up in an incommunicable and particular way”
