		Therefore when we say that the Lord Maitreya is the Head of the Hierarchy, we are saying that He is an exceptionally developed soul, a soul whose light is so immense that He is recognised as a great light not only upon the Earth but also in the Universe.
		It is because of what the Lord Maitreya is, because of the qualities He displays and emanates, because of the principles He lives by, because of the sacrifices He makes for the Earth and so forth, that to know Him in even the smallest way is to love Him.
		When the Lord Maitreya is described as the Lord of Love, it should then be understood that the Lord Maitreya embodies and emanates the Love, the second Aspect of the trinity of the Logos, to all of humanity and into all of the Earth.

	Ven. Balangoda Ananda Maitreya

	HOW HE BECAME MAITREYA
		Maitreya's father was a very sincere and honest man. He was so well known for these qualities that he was asked by many to be the trustee for distribution of the wealth to their children, sometimes orphans.
		Maitreya said to Satish, "I do have a couple of questions." So Satish told him to take his shoes off, go in the room where the Achareya was, and say, "Namaskar," (which is an Indian greeting), sit crossed-legged in front of him and ask his questions.
		Maitreya went to Denver, and it was decided that he should study the company and set up a cost-accounting system, some paper flows, and makes a report of its situation in general.

		The first person w/whom he meets and interacts is the Venerable Ananda Maitreya, one of the seniormost Buddhist monks in Sri Lanka (not only in terms of his age and time since ordination, but more particularly for his learning and wisdom).
		Ananda Maitreya appears on and off throughout the film, and is one of the anchors for this particular "search." In this opening segment, when asked to describe Buddhism in a nutshell, AM gives a famous formula: "To shun all evil, to do good, purification of mind, these are the teachings of all the Buddhas."
		AM first talks talks about the uses of images, and then see the ordination of a young man as a novice monk--complete with a little discussion about monastic life, and the gift-giving by his parents as an act of religious merit.

		Ananda levantou-se, compôs as suas roupas, assumiu a postura correcta, virado para Oeste e, demonstrando a sua reverência sincera, juntou as palmas das mãos, prosternou-se no chão e prestou adoração a Amitayus.
		O Buda respondeu, “Maitreya, se existirem seres que pratiquem várias acções meritórias com a aspiração de nascerem nessa terra enquanto mantêm dúvidas, tais seres são incapazes de compreender a sabedoria de Buda, sabedoria inconcebível, a sabedoria inefável, a sabedoria ilimitada do Mahayana, a incomparável, inigualável e insuperável sabedoria suprema.
