Maitreya's Mission (Volume 3)

Britain's Benjamin Creme is today's most powerful voice challenging the millennial "prophets of doom" with his compelling and detailed vision of the future--what he calls a "brilliant new civilization in the making."

This sweeping transformation is now possible, Creme writes, because a group of extraordinary spiritual teachers are living in the everyday world, ready to begin their open mission of inspiring and guiding humanity. At their head, says Creme, is Maitreya, the World Teacher, the one awaited under different names by people of all spiritual traditions.

Creme covers topics both profound and practical, ranging from mankind's origin to the principle of sharing as the first step toward global peace; from meditation and service to the technology of light; from reincarnation and karma to a pollution-free environment. A section on miracles explains the source and purpose of weeping Madonnas, crosses of light, healing waters, "milk-drinking" statues, crop circles and more.

Benjamin Creme's message holds a unique place in today's world. It offers a practical application of the ancient wisdom underlying all faiths. It provides the blueprint for a society that offers the basic necessities of life to all. It is the assurance of a hard-won but glorious future for humanity. "The new millennium is not the end," says Creme, "but rather a hopeful new beginning."
