The All-Wise Maker creates the totality of the universe as a divine orchestra and wondrous  workshop which strikes up and gives forth countless sorts of songs and hymns  praises and glorification; He displays all the species, all the worlds, in the universe through a different craft and different miracles of art; and not only does He fashion many machines in the heads of animate creatures, each like a gramophone, camera  or  telegraph,  He  also   fashions  in  the  heads  of  human  beings,  both  a gramophone without records, a camera without a film, a telegraph without wires, and a machine twenty times more wonderful. It is  therefore meanings like sacred pride and  holy  pleasure  and  the  exalted  qualities  of  this   sort  which  proceed  from dominicality and  arise  from creating such machines,  and  their  functioning in  the required way and producing the desired results that necessitate this unceasing activity.

And for example, a just ruler takes pleasure and is gratified and feels proud at

taking the part of the oppressed against tyrants in order to uphold justice, at protecting the poor against the wrongdoing of the powerful, and at giving to everyone his due. Since this is a fundamental rule of rulership and justice, consider the following:

The Ever-Living  and  Self-Subsistent  One, who  is the All-Wise  Ruler  and  is Absolutely Just, bestows on creatures and especially on animate ones the necessary conditions for life, which are known as the rights of life; and to preserve their lives, He grants them the necessary abilities and members; and He compassionately protects the weak from the evil of the powerful. Therefore, the dominical qualities and sacred meanings,  which  we  are  powerless  to  express,  that  arise  from this  and  from the execution  of  the  mystery  of  justice,  which  in  this  world  is  total  with  regard  to establishing  justice  for  all  animate  beings  and  partial  with  regard  to  punishing wrongdoers, and especially that arise from the manifestation of supreme justice at the supreme tribunal of the resurrection, necessitate the constant activity in the universe.

Thus, as these three examples show, since each of the most beautiful names give rise to certain sacred divine qualities in this unceasing activity, they require unceasing creativity.  And  since the development,  unfolding and  blossoming of abilities and faculties yield a joy,  expansiveness and pleasure; and since on the performance and completion of a duty and on being released from it, everyone entrusted with such a duty experiences a feeling of relief  and  gratitude; and since to receive many fruits from a single seed and to gain a hundredfold  profit from a single thing is a most pleasurable trade, then most certainly the One who causes the innumerable abilities of creatures to unfold, after employing the creatures in valuable duties,will discharge them, but to a higher state. That is to say, He raises elements to the level of minerals; minerals to plant life; plants to the level of animal life by means of sustenance; and animals to the high level of human life, which is conscious.
