________________ 6. 7. 8. #3 # Now if you say that this activity of God regarding creation etc. is not capable of debating upon, because that his Nature - then this statement of yours says that no one has any right (42) to find out whether there is God or not. (This is not reasonable). If you believe that God knows everything about all substances and this knowledge itself is an action on the part of God, then with this we also agree. Because our God is also Omniscient. Amongst these Omniscient evaras some are free from all Karmand hence without body called Siddha (r), while others may have a body (1.e. a Tirthankara or and an ordinary Omniscient (25izidicat). Oh Lord! On those on whom your blessings fall, such Jivas give up belief in this false theory of creation by God.... and accept whatever is said in your teachings and find joy in believing them.
