If Īśvara is the creator of everything, why does he not create all the time, also doing such things as fetching water and making fire? If he did so, of course,[everything] would be created by Īśvara, but what would be the point in others,[such as] servants, taking care [of these things too]? Some [permanent] creating [that is performed] by Īśvara alone would surely not depend on any other causes. However, the [whole] world can directly see that these phenomena do depend on other causes: If you want fire, you need firewood, but what help is Īśvara in this? There is nothing that was not created by Īśvara, so on what other causes and conditions should this [creation] of his, such as clay pots and butter lamps, depend? Thus, it is not reasonable that [such an exclusive creating activity] could depend [on anything].
