There will soon come a time when men will know, beyond all dispute, that the Christ is once more among us. People of all faiths await Him as the Holy One, the Knower of God. Men will come to know Him as a Brother and Teacher Who will vouchsafe for them their divinity. At present, He awaits patiently the moment of His emergence to work for, and before, the world. Yet even as He waits He works ceaselessly for all men. Not for one second does He remove His gaze or withhold His love. Moment to moment that love embraces all who can absorb it and enters their hearts by stealth. So does He uphold the world of men, protecting and wisely guiding. Be prepared to see a brother but one Who has entered a new state of Brotherhood, come to aid and to teach, and by His love to redeem.
The time is short before His open appearance. Take heart from this and quicken your service on His behalf. Make known that He is among you and stir the hearts of those who know not yet these glad tidings. Fulfil your purpose and redeem the promise which you, long ago, have made.

Expectant
The world waits, alert, expectant, knowing not the reason for its hope. The world, too, groans in misery and fear, longing for succour and the end of anguish. Maitreya will show that the time has come to address the age-long problems that keep men apart, that create rich and poor, that engender war and the ailing of our planet. He will show, too, that time is shortening daily to tend our planet back to health.
Maitreya will teach men the reason for their presence on Earth and the method of fulfilling that purpose. He will show that within each one exists a Being of Light and inspire them to become that Being. He will remind them that nothing stands between themselves and God but ignorance and fear. He will release men from their guilt and turn them to joy. He will show men that guiltless and fearless they will know love.
Understand well that this is a time like none other, never to be repeated. It is a time heroic, valorous and sacred. Use this time to strengthen your links with each other and Maitreya. Work for Him as never before. Be not afraid, for the time is soon when you will see Him and know that you have not worked in vain.
