In April 1988, a close associate of Maitreya, long established in London's Asian community, began a series of briefings in which he presented excerpts from Maitreya's teachings and forecasts of world events. The information, given to two London-based journalists, was made available to the world's press and also published, as received, in issues of Share International magazine. Each interview might cover a wide variety of topics — from flood in Bangladesh to a lesson in Self-realisation. Many of these topics recurred again and again, each time adding some new information from Maitreya. For the sake of clarity, we have edited the excerpts presented here so that teachings on a particular topic are grouped and can flow together. Maitreya's purpose in realising this material was to further prepare humanity for His emergence and to help us understand the spiritual laws governing our lives. The forecasts of world events included in many interviews were given primarily to illuminate one of the most important of these spiritual laws: the Law of Cause and Effect. It is only by grasping and working within this Law, Maitreya says, that we can resolve the present social, political, economic and environmental crises. Space allows for only this brief presentation
of Maitreya's teachings as related through His associate. A more complete
presentation of this information is contained in the book Maitreya's
Mission, Vol. Two
by Benjamin Creme.
