Translations:Otuzuncu Lem'a/148/en

Dominical singleness and divine unity are the means and basis of all perfections,(*^[1])

and the source and origin of the purposes and wisdom in the universe’s creation. They are also the source and sole means of attaining the wishes and desires of conscious beings and rational beings, and particularly of man. If not for divine singleness, all man’s wishes and demands would  be extinguished. The results of the universe’s creation would also decline  to   nothing,  and the majority of existent,  certain perfections would be annihilated.

↑ *In fact, divine unity is the clearest proof and most powerful evidence for the existence of endless divine perfections and beauty. For if the universe’s Maker is known to be the Unique One of Unity, all the perfections and beauty of the universe are known to be the shadows, manifestations, signs, and distillations of the sacred perfections and beauty present in that Maker of Unity. Otherwise the universe’s perfections and beauties would have pertained to creatures and causes, and the eternal treasury of divine perfections would have remained unknown for the human mind, and without a key.
