BUDDHIST COSMOLOGY

      "The religion of future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend a personal God and avoid dogmas and theology, covering both natural, spiritual. It should be based on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things natural and spiritual as a meaningful unity. Buddhism answers to this description."
(Albert Einstein's Talk on "Science and Religion", Princeton, New Jersey, U.S.A. 19th May 1939).
