The Awaiting Saviour

Who is Maitreya?

He has been expected for generations by all of the major
religions. Christians know him as the Christ, and expect his
imminent return. Jews await him as the Messiah; Hindus look
for the coming of Krishna; Buddhists expect him as Maitreya
Buddha; and Muslims anticipate the Imam Mahdi or Messiah

Maitreya is Buddhist Saviour ... coming to save Humans one last time before The End.
Kalki is Hindus Saviour ... coming to end Kali yuga and usher the Satya Yuga.

Know which tradition you wish to speak before speaking.

Salam!

How about KALKI!

Means "Eternity" or "Time" or "The Destroyer of foulness".
Who is expected to appear at the time of "Kali Yuga".

What about Kalki?

No prophecy (acceptable ones) were given other than Sri Krishna's telling others that He will come back at the end of Kali Yuga to destroy/cleanse the world and usher a new Satya Yuga.

No news on where He will come, in what form, born to whom, in what country etc.

Nope ... Kalki is avatar of Lord Vishnu, destroy everything is not His ONLY tasks.

By being a Warrior, He destroys. By being a Brahmin, He will teach Truth once again. By being "Merchant" and "Farmer", He will teach how to cultivate the Land and lead a proper life on THIS world and not dream about the next one.

Just because a person calls himself a Warrior, it doesn't mean his task is to destroy only. A warrior's task is also to protect others.

Justice and Equity?

Nope ... He supposed to bring the World back to Satya Yuga where Mankind is just 0.000001% of what (number) of what they are now, world is cleaner, all life forms can roam freely and there will be only ONE religion and Truth.

In another word - 99.99999% of all humans today (out of 6 Billion) will perish, save about 350 to 500 people who will be the most devoteed ones who will usher a new age.

Nope, not same.

According to Islam, after Judgement Day, no more earth, no more hardwork to try and get to Heaven, etc. Muslims will be judge accordingly and those who are qualificied will be placed in Heaven where they sit, shaking their legs, drinking wine, eating all kind of nonsense, and some indulging in 72 virgins who become virgins over and over again.

For me, all this sounds disqusting. ;)

In Hindusm Judgement Day, there is NO such "Heaven". Earth still exists, except it is returned to the condition it was when Man first appeared (like what it was 1.2 Million years ago).

Hindus DON'T go to heaven and shake their legs. :no:
They have to toil the land again, rebuilt their civilizations, reestablish Dharma on the Planet again. It is NOT an easy task and not for lazy people.

Those who dies and shoved to Hell (temporary one) will become roots of the new world and those who reach Heaven (again, temporary also) will become like rainclouds - raining blessings and prayers for those who toil on the new World.

Those who reach God (the Chosen Few) will return as Enlightned Ones and become Teachers to teach Dharma once again.

The entire cycle of Life, Death and Rebirth will continue in a new Cycle and you and me will meet (face to face) in a New World. That is Our Judgement Day and Heaven after Judgement. :)

Nope!

After our saviour do justice and equity! Imam Mahdi will teach all human beings about sacred knowledge! And the same time we live in justice with advance technology!

Go and read your scriptures properly. ;)

No MORE Earth after Judgement Day. No MORE Humans after Judgement Day. No MORE 2nd Chance after Judgement Day. According to Islam.

Who are you trying to bluff? ;)
Islam is similar to Doomsday's Cults in modern time - preaching Muslims are chosen ones, everyone else is damned one and Muslims should wait for Judgement Day where they will be saved and send to Heaven where they can "joli" with virgins and drinks all the wine they want.

THAT is your Islam. That is the difference between your beliefs and mine (both Buddhism and Hindusm). :no:

So incarnation of sammasam Buddha is nothing?
So why their believe that sammasam buddha coming to enlightment?
To be a teacher?

Yes, it is. Then and Now,since Time of Creation itself, this World belongs to Ones who love it, cherished it, work for it and use it to reach God.

Such people are not Muslims who dream of Heaven alone. :no:

While Kalki is coming to destroy the World and make it anew, Maitreya is coming to teach Mankind about Dharma and truth which Man have forgotting since Gautama Buddha's time. Gautama Buddha had forseen the coming of destruction of Dharma and prophecies about coming of Maitreya Buddha to enlightnment Men once again.

While there is no indication that both are the same person or whether two of them are separate, one thing is ensured - the World WILL be made anew and Dharma WILL be re-established. It is matter only whether Kalki and Maitreya going to come and do it together, one after another, or one person do both task.

Why not? Muslims believe Dajjal is coming, Christians believe that an Anti-Christ (Anti-Christians) is coming, so why not? ;)

It is already fated that you and I will meet in battlefield; it is not matter of IF it happens, it is matter of WHENit will happen. In the end, only ONE of us - you or we - who will remain, not both together in the same world. :no:

salmon Publish time 15-8-2005 08:28 AM

Yes, surely dajjal is coming. But we're not waiting for dajjal!! We're waiting for ourSaviour(Imam Mahdi a.s)

Don't have any sign for your bhagavad gita to come? In your scriptures or avtar text?
