1. Беседа по теме урока:

T: Imperfection is demanded by existence itself. To be “other than God” is to be

imperfect. …do you agree?

So, imperfection is a kind of perfection. Can you prove it?

Would you like to listen to the continuation of the quoatation?

But it is precisely (именно) the “otherness” which allows the cosmos and all the creatures within it to exist. If things were perfect in every respect, they would be identical with God Himself, and there would be nothing “other than God.” But then we could not even speak about the cosmos, since there would be no cosmos and no speakers. …So, imperfection is a kind of perfection. [Chittick]
