2- THE NON-SOUL
did not exist in the universe-space, there would be no certain cause of movement. And then there would be no distinction of the universe and the non-universe. If the medium of rest did not exist in the universespace, there would be no certain cause of assisting rest. Things will not be stationary, or there will be no distinction of the universe and the non-universe. Therefore, owing to the existence of both, the media of motion and of rest, the distinction of universe and non-universe is established. 1
