I've been involved with the group that talks about Maitreya for some time. I understand how it might seem to far out there to give it a second thought. But behind the miracle and anti-christ talk there are solid teachings and actually some good amount of evidence that can lead some to believe it can be true. For those at all interested looking deeper into the story might surprise some that at its base we are talking about common sense changes to help the world and everyone on it.
