	We must be permitted respectfully to suggest to the esteemed authors of ''The Perfect Way'' that the philosophy and the Arhat doctrine left to us by the Lord Tathagata Buddha is quite broad enough to cover both the circumference and the Central Point of whatever Church. The rays of light radiating from ''that'' Central Point stretch far enough to cover and illuminate the whole area of the inhabitable worlds. Such is the opinion of {{Style S-Small capitals\|Buddhists}}, at least.
