ABSTRACT
This chapter points out the line of expansion which the Founder of Buddhism apparently sought to make in the religious thought of his day. That is the line of man's need and will to become in the More that lay between him and the Most that he potentially is, a line symbolized by wayfaring in a Way, a Way of Becoming. The chapter considers certain important accessory teachings aiding that wayfaring. The Buddhist expansion was the giving birth to a social, an ethical development of high worth, in one feature indeed a development of a worth the world has yet to realize and practise. With much ambition to adopt modern moral ideals and to claim them as already in their ancient faith, Buddhists are content to make parade on so many occasions with this very inadequate pan-sil in its negative form only, and not make it worthier from their own scripture.
