This chapter's epigraph is from the Book of Common Prayer. It's a quote from Buddha, in which he says, "I am the light of the world. I am the center of the universe." Buddha says that he is a light in the world because he is the light that shines in the darkness. He also says that the world is full of darkness because of the darkness of the earth. He says that if the world were full of light, there would be no need for the dark side of the moon. He adds that the moon is the source of all darkness because it is the only light that can be seen in the entire universe. He tells Buddha that if he were to light the world, it would be like a light shining in the dark. Buddha responds that he would not want to light a world full of dark shadows because it would mean that there were no light in it. He then says that there are only two ways to see the world: through darkness or through light. The first is through darkness, and the second is through light
