Creation Beyond Measure

The author raises the question that the Creator “did not possess a sense of measure” in order to highlight that the process of creating the world was neither pre-measured nor perfectly balanced, but rather a dynamic act of generating enormous potentials from which extraneous parts were eventually trimmed away. In other words, the world emerged as something not yet fully formed, where many of the initial elements remain either in reserve or as raw material for future formation. Thus, instead of strict proportionality and final harmony, the cosmos reveals its primordial roughness, suggesting that the very act of creation was not based on a rigid sense of measure or equilibrium.

For example, one passage notes:
"Truth finds its reflection not in a one-sided evaluation, but in the consideration of all the data, in the complex combination of different thoughts. The entire cosmic harmony, gradually manifesting itself in nature and humanity, leads us to the idea that a man who has not fulfilled his mission shifts the responsibility onto the Creator.

Was this really the beginning of uniform measure?

Another fragment describes the process of creation as the gradual formation from an initial multitude of potentials:
"A world of vast potentials is created from the outset, and then the superfluous pieces begin to be excised. Something, perhaps, is burned, while something is kept in reserve to eventually reenter the workshop of the supreme Artisan. Thus, gradually, the diverse, multifaceted cosmos that we see and know begins to take shape. However, a vast number of elements from this diversity are merely templates, raw materials still waiting to be utilized." (source: link txt).

Both these excerpts underline that in the very act of creation there is no trace of a final sense of measure or strict proportionality. The author is troubled by the idea of speaking about universal harmony when the initial creation is something not fully defined, requiring further efforts to achieve completeness. It is precisely this observation that makes him question whether the Creator possessed a “sense of measure” in creating the world.
