The **Shri Sutra Kritanga Sutra** states that all creators are potters because if we accept that the mounds of earth, sand, and clay are created by potters, then it would be proven that even the mounds of earth, sand, and clay are created by potters. This is not a factual statement. Similarly, just by looking at the creation of an institution, we cannot say that all institutions or components that are created are created by an intelligent creator. The reality is that the creation of an institution that is known to be created by an intelligent creator can be used to infer the specific creator of that institution. We cannot infer the creator just by looking at the creation of an institution. We cannot infer the creator God just by looking at the creation of an institution because the specific creator of the creation of pots and other objects is the potter, not God. If God is the creator of the pot, then why do we need to accept the potter? If it is said that God is omnipresent, then his involvement in the creation of pots and other objects is indirect. This leads to the concept of the visible and the invisible. The situation is that the potter, the creator of the pot, is directly available, visible, and not accepting him is a loss of the visible. God, who creates the pot, is never visible, and considering him as the cause of the pot is a hypothesis of the invisible.
... It has been said that a person named Chaitra's wound heals through surgery with instruments and application of medicine. Therefore, the instruments and medicine are the cause of the healing of his wound, not other substances. Why don't we consider the **sthānu** (a stump) which has no connection with the healing of the wound as the cause of the healing of the wound? Therefore, it is not just to accept the cause of something without accepting the substance that is visible as its cause. It is not just and reasonable. In this context, the creator of the temple, well, or pit is visible as having components, being non-pervasive, and impermanent. Therefore, the God that is proven by their example is visible as having components, being non-pervasive, and impermanent. Therefore, the God that is proven by their example is proven to be having components, non-pervasive, and impermanent. No example can be found to prove the opposite, that is, a God who is without components, pervasive, and eternal. It cannot be proven by inference. Just as this **kāryatva rūpa** (causality) is not capable of proving God, it cannot prove God. Similarly, the reasons that have been given, such as being present first and then acting, cannot prove God. This should be understood here because these reasons are similar to the **kāryatva rūpa** (causality), they are not the means to achieve the desired meaning. The statement that this world is created by nature is also not logical.
The question arises whether nature is concrete or abstract. If it is abstract, then concrete things like the ocean cannot be created from it. Abstract form is an example of this, from which no object is seen to be created. Therefore, the cause-and-effect relationship between the concrete and the abstract is not proven, that is, the abstract cannot be the cause of the concrete. If nature is concrete, then from what...
