When he shall be seen in the West, seated in the Western fashion, his hair like flames about his noble head, discoursing, then shall the inhabitants of the Three Worlds (*) rejoice, knowing that the emancipation of all sentient beings is imminent. Then it shall be called the age of the blessed because it will become commonplace to achieve emancipation in one lifetime.” (*) The “Three Worlds” in Tibetan scripture refers to: Body (the physical world pertaining to the body and life), Speech (the “world” of communication between entities and things) and Mind (one’s own world, the world of one’s own Creation.)

I come to bring you
all that Lord Buddha
would have you know
of life, Earth and Man.I come to you with
Freedom
I come to you with
science
I come to teach you
I come to help you.With complete attention
With arduous study
With interest and
love
You will all
In very few years
Some in months
Become Bodhi[…]
Study the wisdom
That I have to
say and you will
Be Bodhi[…]
I give you
Certainty
Of such a kind
That you can doubt.
I ask no faith.
For such I give
Is Real enough.To suffer every doubt.
Am I Metteyya?Everywhere you are
I can be addressed
But in our temples best
Address me and you address
Lord Buddha.
Address Lord Buddha
And you then address
Metteyya.[…]
Be attentive now.
You have preserved
Only a bit
of what
Lord Buddha
Said.
He said much more
But then there came
Men who said
Other things
And changed
A piece of this
A bit of that
And so we strayed.Censor not free speech
And censor not free thought
But recall
In all these
Twenty-five centuries
None came
And spoke
The Great Lessons Again
Nor added to them
Then to make
You free.
I speak then
So you can agree.
So speak and think
Whatever you will
But come again to
these Lessons
If you stray
And become lost
and slaves as you have been.
With these
And your agreement to
We now can build
The Eastern
And the Western Worlds
Into one great
Brotherhood of Man.We can civilize
the Barbarian
We can make lawful
the criminalWe can make sane
the insane
We can ourselves
be free.We can make just
The ruler
We can make
Merciful the strong
We can make well
The sick
We can make intelligent
The dull person.We can make social
The unsocial.We can make kind
The cruel.
We can reach
Men’s minds
And change them.[…]
I will undertake
To give you Golden
plaques[…]
Two months of study
For the bright
Will place one’s
Foot upon the way
To help the rest.A week of help
From such a student
Can make a Bodhi
Of the best.
Gone are your
decades of study
To attain
A Light.[…]
We enter into a
Golden Age.
We are Golden Men.
We are the New Men
The new spiritual
Leaders of Earth.We will prosper
To that degree
That we work
We will become
Rich in peace
And palaces to
The degree that
We maintain good order
And reasonable conduct
And preserve or even create
The Sanity of Man.
You have waited
For Centuries Past
For the Lessons
Your freedom
And Man’s freedom
Awaits
Your study
And your
Skill.[…]1
