Space cannot be God, because it is inert. Nor is the Self, because its existence was disproved above. If creativity belongs to what is beyond conception, what can be said of the inconceivable?

དེ་ནི་དབང་ཕྱུག་ཉིད་མ་ཡིན། །Yet earth and other elements are many,
Impermanent, inert, without divinity. Trampled underfoot, they are impure,
And thus they cannot be a God Omnipotent.
Moreover, the earth and such are multiple,
Impermanent, inactive, not divine,[p.759]The Center of the Sunlit Sky

Something trampled upon, and impure.
Mais la terre et les autres éléments sont multiples,
Impermanents, immobiles et non divins ; On les foule au pied et ils sont impurs :
Ils n’ont donc rien de commun avec Dieu.
Sin embargo la tierra y los otros elementos son múltiples,
transitorios, inertes y sin carácter divino. Puede andarse por encima de ellos, son impuros
y por lo tanto no pueden ser un dios poderoso.
However, since earth and so forth are many,
Impermanent, immutable and not divine, Since they are the very ground walked upon and impure
They are not Ishvara.
However, there are many elements such as earth, etc.
They are impermanent, immovable, not divine, Can be stepped on. and are impure;
Therefore, they are not Ishvara.
