ABSTRACT

This intelligent idea cannot be a mover whose essence (dhāt-i warā) is sought because this essence is incomprehensible to any body and to any power united with a body. Hence, it cannot be united (paiwand) with any body. Motion cannot result from that situation in which one entity gives orders and another takes orders while the giver of orders seeks the taker of orders. We have also stated that such an intention on the part of the giver of orders cannot be due to this reason, for otherwise the difficulties mentioned earlier would arise.
