Maitreya Buddha, whose name derives from the Sanskrit word 'maitri' meaning 'loving-kindness,' is revered in Buddhist traditions as the future Buddha. He currently resides in the Tushita heaven as a Bodhisattva, awaiting his time to descend to Earth and achieve full enlightenment, teaching the Dharma when the teachings of the historical Buddha, Shakyamuni, have been forgotten. He embodies the virtues of universal love and compassion, promising a future era of spiritual awakening and boundless compassion.
