The only refreshing thing about it, was, well for the part I saw at least, it didn't have the CHURCHY type LOOOOVE music, you know the stuff that gets the SPIRIT FINGERS waving, and before long, the whole congregation are doing the NEW CRAZY LOVE DANCE, called the SPIRIT FINGERS.
No disrespect intended, and I mean it. NOT having that emotional LOVE type music was refreshing

I know what you mean. It's not that kind of woosy, self aborbed feel good "love" and Maitreya's certainly "not that kind of angel." Check this one out for the other side to it: youtu.be/5_JYnvR1GkQThanks for your thoughts! Ila |

I have followed Maitreya since 1987. I am not sure that Teacher is the right word. Maitreya brings a New Covenant to mankind. He is here defeat the Force of Darkness, to save all Souls from Suffering, Sorrow, Death and Rebirth, and to ensure the continued survival of humanity. Those who follow Maitreya take up his Holy Mission as our own. Not to destroy any Religion, but to renew and restore the Spirit to all Religions and to Unite all People in their Oneness with The One Universal God. We are called Maitreyians. And Maitreya is creating a Divine Spiritual Army of Maitreyians to change the course of Humanity and free all people. A big job, but somebody has to do it. Otherwise, with what is going on in the world, we will destroy ourselves and humanity. www.maitreyathefriend.com |

;)Maitreya was the next Buddha to be incarnated,
when i last looked into buddhism.
Congratulations on your stickability to your Advisor, from 1987.
I like the idea of 'restoring truth' into religions of the world;but wouldnt those Religions that you're restoring truth-into,
see you as 'Not one of their own' and feel obliged
to send you back to where you came from?
Have you or any of the other
members of the Divine Spiritual Army of Maitreyians'
ventured into the Jehovah Witness Halls around the globe yet?

I would like to ask a somewhat more pertinent question. What is it that needs to be saved? If humankind blows itself up, the only thing that is here now will still be here, and It needs nothing. It is undivided and unchanging, so what could possibly save it from anything? There is nothing separate from it and therefore nothing outside of it. Maitreya is another good idea to get rid of. I would suggest that you discover what is looking at the world through "your" body, and then see if Maitreya has any meaning or value.

Acewall: The Truth that Maitreya is here to restore, is the direct experience of God, rather than the truth of words or books or theology, etc. And yes, you are most correct! Even though Maitreya is not here to deny or depose any of God's mercies to man, but to give Humanity a way to know God directly, and to get off this endless wheel of birth, life, suffering, sorrow, death and rebirth, He and we Maitreyians are hated, sometimes visciously, by the fundamentalists of every Religion. Not by the mystics, but most certainly by the fundamentalists. Maitreya says, kind of tongue in cheek "We accept everyone so no one accepts us." Funny, but also all too true. We celebrate Universalists Day in the month of Tolerance (September) in which we visit another Religion and practice as they practice. Last year the group I am with visited the Mormons. Good thought, maybe this year we'll visit the Jehovah's Witnesses. Thanks for your sincere comments, it is refreshing. May the Blessings of The One Universal God and Maitreya The Friend be with you.

ZenDancer: In the ultimate and eternal realm, you are correct. But in this dream world, people suffer, sorrow, die and are reborn, again and again and again. The only way out of that continual rebirth is to return into the Ocean of God and become One with Him, like a drop of water becomes One with the Sea. The problem is that, until now, this has been very difficult, and only a few achieve it. But because Maitreya sacrificed his own Perfect Final Union with God twice and Vowed that he would never again enter into God until he had safely seen all Souls Home before him, God has made a New Covenant with mankind. That whosoever receives Maitreyas Holy Initiation and follows him to the end of their lives, they will receive the Perfect Final Union with God that Maitreya gave up for their sake. And when there are enough Souls who have done this, God will create a Divine Spiritual Critical Mass, and everyone will have the opportunity to enter into that Perfect Oneness with God and be set free. In dream worlds, we need dream ladders. Maitreya is like that dream ladder, here for anyone who wants to climb out of this illusion, and into Perfect Union with God, and for anyone who also wants to help humanity do the same. Because if we blow ourselves up, we don't get off the wheel and will have to ride even longer. For those who prefer to stay, and ride this wheel, we'll pick them up later, when we reach Divine Critical Mass. Maitreya explains this so well in his latest Sanctuary meeting: youtu.be/YYRxS2id25kBTW, not good form to stand at the bottom of the mountain and pass judgments on those who are doing their darnest to climb it (and help others to climb it) especially without walking "a mile in their moccasins" first. You Question: I would like to ask a somewhat more pertinent question. What is it that needs to be saved? If humankind blows itself up, the only thing that is here now will still be here, and It needs nothing. It is undivided and unchanging, so what could possibly save it from anything?

Hi Ila:
When you look at people, what do you see?
- Body?
- Soul?
- A soul inside a body?
What is the body and what is the soul? What are they made of?

Dear Porto I strive to see God in all and all In God. I strive to realize that all soul is Pure Divine Universal Spirit, which is one and identical with the One Universal God and no other, as Maitreya teaches. Of course, I am not perfect at it, and I fall into selfishness and materialism from time to time. I also see a soul, which is Pure Divine Universal Spirit, trapped within a body and mind and in igorance of his or her true nature as One and Identical with God, the one thing that sets all Souls free. I strive to know and feel the suffering of others, so that I can help those who wish to get free, in the way that I have gotten free myself, through Maitreya. ForI know of direct personal experience, if we all truly knew who we are (not believed it or thought about it, but knew it ) we would live better lives, be better people, and ultimately to go into that Ocean of God like a drop of water falling into the Sea becomes the Sea, at the end of this life. Ila Hi Ila: When you look at people, what do you see? - Body? - Soul? - A soul inside a body? What is the body and what is the soul? What are they made of? |

I get the feeling that even though only a few might do this thing, well doing this thing is required. Doing this thing, aka, getting beyond the identification and hence the serving of EGO, aka, fear and control. Now doing this thing, cannot be done, and EGO is the one that cannot do it, hence EGO doesn't like that. Ultimately I feel, its unconditional surrender, come what may, or dont feed the thing, regardless what it says. I feel relying on someone else is wishful thinking, and wont change ones situation. I feel it takes time too. has nothing to do with belief, and when the ego goes up in smoke, and froths in fear and rage, the doing nothing, is as painful as hell. I feel we all ultimately have to pass that fire.
Ill check the link posted. so thanks.
