 In the beginning, we find Uayy awaken to a world that surrounds him, and, with an innate sense of wonder, he begins to examine "all the bodies found in the world of generation and corruption" (McGinnis & Reisman 358). He noted that things like "the various species of animals and plants and minerals and the kinds of stones, soil, water, vapor, snow, cold, smoke, ice, flame and heat" (358) all had different descriptions and moved and acted in particular ways. He made connections and differentiated between the various attributes of these things, yet he could not sort out the world into different orders of being; there was too much multiplicity in the world. He even considered his own body to be a multiplicity since "he observed the difference of his organs and that each of them is individuated by a certain action" (359). In the beginning, we find Uayy awaken to a world that surrounds him, and, with an innate sense of wonder, he begins to examine "all the bodies found in the world of generation and corruption" (McGinnis & Reisman 358).
