In the Lotus Sutra and Amitabha Pureland Sutra, he is known as Ajita. In earlier Pali Sutta, he is mentioned as Metteyya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One in the Cakkavatti-Sīhanāda Sutta
(Digha Nikaya 26). He is also found in the Buddhavamsa, Chapter 28
mentions three Buddhas that preceded DÄ«pankara, as well as the future

Maitreya

is also foretold in the Samyutta Nikaya’s Maitreyavimāna
Sutta (Samyutta Nikāya 36.21). Mention of Maitreya is made numerous
times throughout the Mahayana Sutras such as the Heart Sutra and
Surangama Sutra, often reaffirming that Maitreya will be a Buddha who
follows after

The Lotus Sutra contains Maitreya’s biography and describes him in
detail. The first chapter of the sutra begins with a staff bearing
Maitreya’s image appearing in space to challenge Mara, and then
describes Maitreya sitting on a jeweled lotus throne surrounded by
bodhisattvas and gods, such as Manjushri, Samantabhadra and
Avalokiteśvara. Maitreya is also presented in the Lotus Sutra as the
teacher who will succeed Gautama Buddha and Maitreya’s name is often
mentioned along with Amitābha Buddha.

Five Treatises of Maitreya


ETERNAL  GLORIFIED FRIENDLY BENEVOLENT COMPASSIONATE AWAKENED ONES


In the Tibetan tradition, Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One transmitted five precious teachings to Asanga, called the Five Treatise of Maitreya.


Mipham Rinpoche wrote:



“After the noble bodhisattva Asanga performed the practice of Lord
Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One for twelve human years, he met Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One face-to-face and was
led to the heavenly realm of Tushita. Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One presented
Asanga with
five commentaries that comment upon the wisdom intent of all the words
of the Victorious One. These five treatises are the Two Ornaments, the
Two Treatises That Distinguish, and the Sublime Continuum.”


The Five Treatises are:


  1. The Ornament of Clear Realization (Skt. Abhisamayālaṃkāra; Tib. àœ˜àœ„àœŒàœ“àŒ‹àœ”àœ¢àŒ‹àœ¢àŸŸàœŒàœ‚àœŠàŒ‹àœ”àœ àœ²àŒ‹àœ¢àŸ’àŸ±àœ“àŒ‹; Trad. Chin. 珟觀莊嚎論)
  2. The Ornament of the Mahayana Sutras (Skt. MāhayānasÅ«trālaṃkāra; Tib. àœàœºàœ‚àŒ‹àœ”àŒ‹àœ†àœºàœ“àŒ‹àœ”àœŒàœ àœ²àŒ‹àœ˜àœ‘àœŒàŒ‹àœŠàŸ¡àœºàŒ‹àœ¢àŸ’àŸ±àœ“àŒ‹; Trad. Chin. 倧乘莊嚎經論).
  3. Distinguishing the Middle from the Extremes (Skt. Madhyāntavibhāga; Tib. àœ‘àœ–àœŽàœŠàŒ‹àœ‘àœ„àŒ‹àœ˜àœàœ àŒ‹àœ¢àŸ£àœ˜àŒ‹àœ”àœ¢àŒ‹àœ àœ–àŸ±àœºàœ‘àŒ‹àœ”àŒ‹; Trad. Chin. 蟚䞭邊論頌).
  4. Distinguishing Dharma and Dharmata (Skt. Dharma-dharmatā-vibhāga; Tib. àœ†àœŒàœŠàŒ‹àœ‘àœ„àŒ‹àœ†àœŒàœŠàŒ‹àœ‰àœ²àœ‘àŒ‹àœ¢àŸ£àœ˜àŒ‹àœ”àœ¢àŒ‹àœ àœ–àŸ±àœºàœ‘àŒ‹àœ”àŒ‹; Trad. Chin. 蟚法法性論)
  5. The Sublime Continuum (Skt. Uttaratantra Śāstra; Tib. àœ¢àŸ’àŸ±àœŽàœ‘àŒ‹àœ–àŸ³àŒ‹àœ˜àŒ‹; Trad. Chin. 分別寶性倧乘無䞊續論).

Source of his name: Maitri

Sanskrit word maitrÄ« Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One  “friendship, love, kindness”, which is in turn derived from the noun Mitra Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One .
Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One’s name Maitreya is derived from the Sanskrit word maitrī
Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One “friendship” — however Maitri Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One has many layered meanings: benevolence,
kindness, friendliness, amity, goodwill, active love for others. Maitri Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One is one of the ten Paramis of Theravadan Buddhism. His practice is the
practice of Metta, or loving kindness.



Metta (loving kindness) is, literally, the practice of Loving Kindness — and the practice of Maitreya.

Maitreya

’s appearance


Of course, Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One is always friendly and peaceful in appearance, in
keeping with his role as a loving friend of suffering sentient beings.


His practice flourished during the time Alexander the Great arrived
in India. Many statues of Maitreya, in the Greco-Buddhist style, portray
him as a beautiful nobleman with a Kumbha (or Bhumpa) or wisdom urn in
his left hand.


Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One is sometimes featured in Buddhist art on a large lotus
flower with his legs hanging down or on a throne with his legs crossed
and resting on a small footstool.


The earliest Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One statue in China dates to the 6th century CE,
though the Maitreya concept probably entered China much earlier, during
the 2nd century CE. Maitreya is also found in Thai and Cambodian art
from at least the 7th century CE.


In recent years, Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One has become popular in Western countries,
particularly the United States, where Maitreya statues may be seen in
many private homes and public places such as parks and Buddhist centers.

ETERNAL  GLORIFIED FRIENDLY BENEVOLENT COMPASSIONATE AWAKENED ONES

’s role as a savior


Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened OneBodhisattva is often depicted seated on a lotus throne
holding a Dharma wheel or teaching bell in his left hand while making
the Abhaya mudra (fearlessness gesture) with his right hand. This mudra
represents Maitreya’s role as a teacher of the Dharma, which will lead
all beings to liberation from suffering.


Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One is also known as the “Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One Buddha of the Future” because he is
said to be the next Buddha who will appear on Earth. Maitreya is often
linked with the Amitabha Buddha, as they are both seen as saviors who
will help sentient beings in their journey towards enlightenment.


It is Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One’s role as “savior” and future Buddha that led to so
many fraudulent tricksters claiming throughout history to be Maitreya
Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One come to earth. (See the section on Maitreya claimants.)

Maitreya


ETERNAL  GLORIFIED FRIENDLY BENEVOLENT COMPASSIONATE AWAKENED ONES

’s compassion


Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One Bodhisattva embodies the Bodhisattva ideal of Mahayana
Buddhism: one who delays their own Buddhahood out of compassion for all
sentient beings. Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One’s name means “loving friend” or “friend of
all”, and his compassionate nature is extended to all beings, regardless
of whether they are human, animal or anything else. Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One is
therefore known as the “friend of all creatures”.


Maitreya


ETERNAL  GLORIFIED FRIENDLY BENEVOLENT COMPASSIONATE AWAKENED ONES

’s compassion is further extended to include even those who have caused harm. In the Maitri Upanishad, Maitreya says:



“By taking refuge in me, even those who have committed the most
heinous crimes will be freed from their karma and will attain
liberation.”


This shows that MaitreyaFriendly


ETERNAL  GLORIFIED FRIENDLY BENEVOLENT COMPASSIONATE AWAKENED ONES

’s compassion is not selective — it is
available to all, no matter how bad their past actions may have been.
MaitreyaFriendly


ETERNAL  GLORIFIED FRIENDLY BENEVOLENT COMPASSIONATE AWAKENED ONES

own lives.

Buddha was the 4th Buddha of our age. The
fifth and final Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One Buddha of our age (bhadrakalpa) will be Maitreya — who
will arrive when the last of the Dharma has vanished.


Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One will then teach the Dharma anew and lead all beings to liberation.


Maitreya Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One is therefore known as the “Buddha of the Future”.



How to reach Maitreya

Although he will come as the “future” manifested Friendly Benevolent Compassionate Awakened One Buddha in our world,
according to the prophecies of Shakyamuni 


ETERNAL  GLORIFIED FRIENDLY BENEVOLENT COMPASSIONATE AWAKENED ONES

Buddha, he is “reachable” now
through meditation, prayer, mantras and practice. Although he resides
in Tushita Heaven — he is active as a compassionate Bodhisattva. Simply
call his name, meditate on his form, chant his mantra, and his
compassionate power will reach you.


His simplest prayer is to chant:



Come, Maitreya

, Come!

Any feature on this loving Bodhisattva — who will be the next Buddha
in our world, and who is currently an Enlightened Bodhisattva in Tushita
Heaven — must, unfortunately, cover the unsavory aspects of people
“posing” as Maitreya coming to earth. There is, of course, nothing
unsavory about Maitreya — the most loving and noble of all the
Bodhisattvas. Unfortunately, though, many dictators, military leaders,
religious leaders, and other opportunists have claimed to be Maitreya
come to earth to save us all.  They are nothing more than unfortunate
blips in history — universally discredited as false by Buddhist leaders
of the past. These are just a few of the many:

1) Strawberries

8 Fruits And Vegetables You Can Grow In Pots On A Balcony

These succulent little fruits don’t require much maintenance as long
as they get enough sun. It is therefore quite easy to have them all year
round, especially if you vary the varieties by alternating early and
late ones. This way, you will have what you need every year!

2) Carrots

8 Fruits And Vegetables You Can Grow In Pots On A Balcony

Carrot plantings can easily accommodate a push in a pot. However,
before you can harvest them, you need to meet a few important criteria:
soft, sandy soil, regular watering and moderate temperatures.

3) Cucumbers

8 Fruits And Vegetables You Can Grow In Pots On A Balcony

The stars of our salads can be planted in pots and allow you to
harvest about six cucumbers per plant in two months after planting. Keep
in mind that cucumbers love to bask in the sun in a large pot that is
watered regularly! If your balcony has a good exposure, cucumbers are
perfectly compatible with this space.

4) Tomatoes

8 Fruits And Vegetables You Can Grow In Pots On A Balcony

Another popular food when the mercury is rising, tomatoes offer a
good yield (especially the “Red Pear” and “Yellow Pear”)! You just need
to choose a pot adapted to the variety you want and five hours of direct
sunlight per day. Know that the dwarf and cherry varieties are perfect
to cultivate for those who begin. With our tips for successful tomato
plants, growing them will only get easier!

5) Green beans

8 Fruits And Vegetables You Can Grow In Pots On A Balcony

They grow easily and require little attention, but since they climb a
lot, it’s best to provide a trellis along a wall. Choose a pot at least
30 cm deep and grow them in nitrogen-rich soil
 why not with cabbages
or celery that produce nitrogen? Also note that young shoots and adult
plants like sun.

6) Peppers and chilies

8 Fruits And Vegetables You Can Grow In Pots On A Balcony

If you meet certain conditions, you’ll have all the peppers and
chilies you need, because they’re not afraid of small spaces! A warm
environment and sunshine are important, of course, but you’ll also need a
pot at least 30 cm deep and don’t forget to drain the soil with some
green manure when planting.

7) Eggplants

8 Fruits And Vegetables You Can Grow In Pots On A Balcony

Surprisingly, growing eggplants in pots is not complicated if you
give them a temperate environment to grow all year round. Hot
temperatures don’t scare them, quite the opposite so put large pots in
the sun and don’t forget their regular watering as well as natural
fertilizer or compost!

8) Zucchini

8 Fruits And Vegetables You Can Grow In Pots On A Balcony

Zucchini are one of the easiest vegetables to grow in a pot, thanks
to their easy maintenance as long as they get enough sun. If you want to
grow something good in abundance, you won’t regret it! For the variety,
prefer the non-hardy ones that will give you small fruits. The “Nice
