What is difference between spreading the word about Maitreya and what fundamentalist Christians do when they try to spread the word. Are not both trying to get people to believe their way?
A. In the case of spreading the word about Maitreya’s presence and concerns, one is giving (hopefully, not dogmatically) information about a world event before it is generally known. This creates a climate of hope and expectancy which allows Maitreya to enter our lives without infringing our free will. No one is asked to change his or her beliefs or adopt any particular religious dogmas. The fundamentalist Christian on the other hand is, as he sees it, an evangelist whose duty is to ‘bring everyone to Jesus’. To their minds, this necessarily involves the acceptance of their man-made dogmas and doctrines.
