Russian term or phrase: если пропадает связь, исчезает соответствие, разрушается структура
Как правильно перевести фразу "если пропадает связь, исчезает соответствие, разрушается структура"?

Контекст:

Взаимодействие во Вселенной осуществляется по правилу 3-х С - Связь есть Соответствие, а Соответствие есть Структура. Если пропадает связь, исчезает соответствие и разрушается структура. Правилен ли мой перевод:
The interaction in the Universe is effected according to the rule of three C – the Connection is the Correspondence, but the Correspondence is the Structure. If the Connection drops out, the Correspondence disappears and the Structure is disintegrated.
sezon
If the Connection is lost, the Correlation disappears, and the Structure disintegrates/is destroyed
Explanation:
You have a lot of mistakes in your translation. First of all, "The interaction in the Universe _takes place_ according to the rule of the three _C's_", secondly correspondence refers to writing letters to someone, NOT in the sense that something corresponds to something else. You need to replace that word. Thirdly, "is disintegrated" sounds incorrect, you should either use "disintegrates" or "is destroyed".
