About this listen

Leibniz argues for God's creation as the best possible world, defining God's attributes (omniscience, omnipotence) and explaining the relationship between God, individual substances (monads), and the universe. He distinguishes between efficient and final causes, highlighting the role of God's will and understanding in governing events. Finally, he addresses the nature of human free will within this predetermined yet harmonious system.
