Absolute self-sufficiency is a quality involved in
Divine Perfection. It signifies this, that in a
general and universal manner all the modes, states,
and aspects of the One Real Being, with all their
adherent properties and qualities, in all their
presentations, past, present, or future, manifested
in all grades of substances, divine and mundane, are
present and realised in the secret thought of that
Divine Being, in such wise that the sum of them all
is contained in His Unity. From this point of view
He is independent of all other existences; as it is
said, "God most glorious can do without the world."
