I am called the coming Buddha not because I will manifest in physical form
But because I come to those at advanced stages of the spiritual path
**
Is a kind of liberation.
To turn away from identity entirely is a rare blessing
Those who seek me need strength and determination, in life and in meditation
Though the universe grows and disintegrates and comes back again in glory
** NOTE: This statement goes against buddhist doctrine in the Vajrayana and Mahayana
traditions which holds that Maitreya will incarnate on earth as a bodhisattva at some future
time, and become an enlightened buddha during that incarnation.
