This is part of ' The Hidden Monarch - The Eschatological Dimension' series. • Maitreya (Sanskrit), Metteyya (Pali), is regarded as a future Buddha of this world in Buddhist eschatology. In some Buddhist literature, such as the Amitabha Sutra and the Lotus Sutra, he is referred to as Ajita. • The prophecy of the arrival of Maitreya refers to a time in the future when the dharma will have been forgotten by most on the terrestrial world. • Maitreya is the future Messiah; He is yet to descend to preach the Law at the end of our Kalpa (aeon). • In the Buddhist tradition, the story of Maitreya, the future Buddha, plays a central role in the cultural history of virtually every period and every area of Buddhist Asia. • There is a variety of quite distinctive expressions of the Buddhist tradition. • The Maitreya legend has provided a symbol rich in possibility for culturally specific, local elaboration, yet it has also continued throughout to draw on a group of core themes and aspirations deeply rooted in the Buddhist culture common to most of Asia. • Every Buddhist culture has appropriated this appealing figure under many guises from which Buddhism shaped, and was shaped by a series of cultural encounters and traditions, reaching across Asia, corresponding to different manifestations of the cycle for different peoples. • Maitreya's place as the future Buddha seems to have been established quite early in Buddhist history. • The emergence of the figure of • Maitreya, whose coming would mark the fulfillment of Buddha's law as well • with the establishment of universal peace and concord made a decisive impact on Buddhist views of the future • By necessity, any study of Maitreya must be as multifaceted as the figure Himself. • • The term Buddhism is derived from the Pali designation Buddha (Sanskrit: Buddha) given to its founder; it is, however, not so much a name as a title. Buddha, from the root budh, to awaken, means the Awakened One : it is thus a designation applied to one who attains the spiritual realization likened to an arousing or to an awakening, • which Prince Siddhartha announced to the Indo-Aryan world. • Julius Evola - • • The Buddhas who have been, are, and will be, are more • numerous than the grains of sand on the banks of the • The Ganges. • Aparimita Dharani - • • All past and all future Buddhas teach the same saving • knowledge in the manner best suited to the time and place of • their appearance. • A.K.Coomaraswamy - • • The last part of the video explains the Buddhist cycle of time • The images and the music are not my artwork. • The texts are thoroughly gathered from different books. • I have only arranged the texts according to the images and the music, to present a video that may briefly envelop the most important aspects of the subject in question. • For further research see : • Charles Upton - Legends of the End: Prophecies of the End Times, Antichrist, Apocalypse, and Messiah from Eight Religious Traditions • Alan Sponberg, Helen Hardacre - Maitreya, the Future Buddha • Padmanabh S.

The reign of spiritual liberty. • It is represented by the coming of God Himself, either through the representation of an Avatara or through different Manifestations; • with the expectation of Parousia, as a Theophanic descent in our plane of manifestation. Jesus Christ, Buddha Maitreya, Kalki Avatara, Imam al-Mahdi, etc. • • The second aspect represents the perpetual Legislators that regent a cycle of existence, thus maintaining a bridge through the mediation of God and our world, most commonly through Prophets or the highest initiates. • These Universal Legislators are Melki-Tsedeq, al-Khidr, Menes, Raja-Chakravarti, etc. • The third aspect which is mainly overlooked comprises the hidden heroes namely the legendary figures who have remained in suspended animation through the entire course of a cycle until the end of the world; aroused from their occultation to assume the final role of redeemers. • King Arthur, Frederic Barbarossa, Keresapa, Kashyapa, Stephan the Great, Alexander the Great, Marko Kralevici, Prester John, etc.
