*Maitreya and the Second Coming* Q: In Christianity they have the coming of the Messiah, the Second Coming of Christ; and in Buddhism they have the coming of the Buddha, Maitreya. Is that the same analogy being played out again? B: Yes. Yes. And again, remember that the idea of the so-called second coming is the awaking of /that/ consciousness within each and every one of /you/. Not the idea of an individual embodiment returning, though there will be symbols of that idea. The awakening /within/ each and every one of you /is/ the actual so-called Second Coming. Make sense? Q: Yes. Thank you. B: Thank you.
