Maitreya, known as the "Future Buddha" or the "Compassionate One," is currently a bodhisattva residing in the Tushita Heaven, waiting to descend to Earth to rediscover the Dharma once the teachings of the current age have faded. His name is derived from the Sanskrit word maitri, meaning loving-kindness. Maitreya represents the ultimate potential for world peace and the renewal of spiritual wisdom, teaching that the path to enlightenment is paved with benevolence and patience toward all sentient beings.
