If you say that God creates the bodies and other things of living beings according to their karma, that is, He creates bodies and other things according to the karma they perform, then this is also not right, because by believing this, your God does not remain God. The reason for this is that by expecting karma, He becomes dependent like a weaver, and by becoming dependent, He cannot remain God, because just as a weaver is dependent on thread and other tools, and by being dependent, he is not called God, in the same way, your God is also dependent on karma, and by being dependent, He cannot be called God. God is always independent and self-sufficient. ||26||
If you say that the actions of happiness, sorrow, etc. of living beings happen automatically according to their karma, and God is considered to be the cause of them, then this is also not right, because when the actions of happiness, sorrow, etc. are automatically fulfilled according to karma, then it is unfortunate that you are unnecessarily supporting God. ||27||
Perhaps it will be said that God is very loving and merciful, therefore He creates the universe to benefit living beings, then He should have made this entire universe full of happiness and free from troubles. Why does He make the majority of the universe unhappy even though He is merciful? ||28||
One thing is this, that before the creation, was there a world or not? If there was, then why did He waste effort in creating something that was already self-existent? And if there was not, then what will He create from it? Because one cannot create something that is completely non-existent, like the sky lotus. ||29||
If the creator God is liberated, free from the stain of karma, then He cannot create the world because He is indifferent, free from attachment and aversion. And if He is a worldly being, stained with karma, then He will not be called God like us, then how will He create the world? In this way, this theory of creation does not prove true in any way. ||30||
Just consider this, that He creates the world, therefore all the living beings in the world become like His children, then the same God also destroys everyone, therefore He incurs a great sin of destroying His own children. Perhaps you will say that He destroys only the wicked beings, then it would be better if He did not create the wicked beings in the first place. ||31||
If you say that the bodies and other things of living beings are created due to some intelligent cause,
