The view is ultimate and
novel. There can be no greater view; in its outline the view is equal to the
general features of the Universe which is revealed in its greatest and
hitherto at most vaguely seen aspect; therefore, there is no need for a
greater view. Although there are intimations of this view in the history of
ideas, the following are novel: (a) the variety of elements that are subsumed
and the coherence of their arrangement and connection, (b) that the view is
demonstrated and not in the least posited in terms of premise or axiom, (c)
that—simultaneously—the concept and method of demonstration are developed,
and (d) the—demonstrated—finiteness and ultimate character of the depth of
the view, and the demonstrated infinite variety of being revealed by it
