1st of all lets get a better description of who buddhists claim maitreya is:
Maitreya (Sanskrit) or Metteyya (Pāli) is a future Buddha of this world in Buddhist eschatology. In some Buddhist literature, such as the Amitabha Sutra and the Lotus Sutra, he is referred to as Ajita Bodhisattva.
Maitreya is a bodhisattva who in the Buddhist tradition is to appear on Earth, achieve complete enlightenment, and teach the pure dharma. According to scriptures, Maitreya will be a successor of the historic Śākyamuni Buddha, the founder of Buddhism. The prophecy of the arrival of Maitreya is found in the canonical literature of all Buddhist sects (Theravāda, Mahāyāna, Vajrayāna) and is accepted by most Buddhists as a statement about an actual event that will take place in the distant future.The future coming of Maitreya: Maitreya's coming will occur after the teachings of the current Gautama Buddha, the Dharma, are no longer taught and are completely forgotten. Maitreya is predicted to attain Bodhi in seven days (which is the minimum period), by virtue of his many lives of preparation for Buddha-hood (similar to those reported in the Jataka stories of Shakyamuni Buddha).
Maitreya's coming is characterized by a number of physical events. The oceans are predicted to decrease in size("oceans decrease in size" means the world would become a smaller place,In other words man would develop technologies that would make maitreya have a greater outreach), allowing Maitreya to traverse them freely. The event will also allow the unveiling of the "true" dharma to the people, in turn allowing the construction of a new world. The coming also signifies the end of the middle time in which humans currently reside (characterized as a low point of human existence between the Gautama Buddha and Maitreya.)

“Is Obama an enlightened being?” asked San Francisco Chronicle columnist Mark Morford (June 6, 2008).
Well, yes, of course he is, Morford answered himself. As evidence, he cited “enormously smart, wise, spiritually attuned people who’ve been intuitively blown away by Obama’s presence.” Yikes. You can’t argue with really spiritual people, can you?
“Many spiritually advanced people… identify Obama as a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being… who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet,” Morford wrote.
All right, already: so Barack Obama is not just some far-left putz from Chicago, but something more than human, a being on a higher plane. Not just some dork who thinks there are 57 states in the Union, but a Lightworker.
But which higher being is he? An archangel? A genie? Zeus? Hercules? The Mothman? It’s important to know these things.
Obama is Maitreya
“Who is Maitreya? He has been expected for generations by all of the major religions… Although the names are different, many believe that they all refer to the same individual: the World Teacher, whose personal name is Maitreya… Preferring to be known simply as the Teacher, Maitreya has not come as a religious leader, or to found a new religion, but as a teacher and guide for people of every religion and those of no religion.
“At this time of great political, economic and social crisis Maitreya will inspire humanity to see itself as one family, and create a civilization based on sharing, economic and social justice, and global cooperation.”
“Under Maitreya’s inspiration, humanity itself will make the required changes and create a saner and more just world for all”--it says so on the Internet.
Lets Look at some of the descriptions of the Maitreya on
Share International's website and see whether they fit Obama s description:
1.His first such appearance was on 11 June 1988, in Nairobi, Kenya .
Barack Obamas Dad was a Kenyan.Also Barack Obamas "1st" visit to Kenya was in 1988
2.They(Maitreya and other world teachers) are returning to the everyday world to help us solve our most critical global problems.
There are so many global problems just at the time he is about to take over the mantle of leadership: The global economic crisis and Terrorism.Also he has appointed so many "skillful hands"(world teachers,who are proponents of the nwo)to help manage the crisis
3. This time of great political, economic and social crisis Maitreya will inspire humanity to see itself as one family, and create a civilization based on sharing, economic and social justice, and global cooperation.
Obama has frequently said he represents change and is against divisions he wants America to see itself as one without biases such as black or white rich or poor gay or striaght.He was also accused by John Mccain of being a socialist because he believes the wealth should be spread instead of remaining with rich.It is also interesting to note that he made the following statement during his inauguration speech :"that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our "common humanity" shall reveal itself;"
4.Preferring to be known simply as the Teacher, Maitreya has not come as a religious leader, or to found a new religion, but as a teacher and guide for people of every religion and those of no religion.
Although Obama claims to be a xtian he is not religious he embraces all faiths and has ties to christianity,islam atheism(his dad was a muslim turned atheist) and agnoctism(his mum).Also in his inauguration speech he clearly shows he embraces all faith with this statement:".... a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus — and non-believers"He is the 1st US president to acknowledge unbelievers in an inauguration speech.
5.Global warming is now understood to a degree, but man’s responsibility for it has not yet dawned on all the national authorities. This is one of the most important realizations that we have to make – that man is responsible for at least 80 per cent of the warming up of the planet, and if this continues it will drastically affect our daily lives. Maitreya and the Masters alone have the exact knowledge of how to proceed but we already know the first steps to take (the need to restrict carbon emissions and so on)
Obama has emphasized that he is ready to tackle global warming.
6.Obama is not a religious teacher neither did he come to found a new religion.He represents change i.e a new way.He is a leader of the free world.(That is what American presidents are called)
The evidence is overwhelming: Barack Obama is Maitreya.He is the most fitting of this description since no man religious or otherwise yields more global power and influence than the us president not even the sec gen of the UN.
7.Benjamin Creme says of Maitreya , .... but he(maitreya) has needed an invitation from humanity to do so (appear), so that he doesn’t infringe our free will to just simply stepping in to limelight. My task has been to prepare the way to create the climate of hope, of expectancy for his coming so he can enter our life's without infringing on our free will. But to speak to world to any degree he needs the modern communications the media of the world and the media of the world has been very reluctant to invite him forward” Art comments “Well I would do that” yes I’m sure you would because you are an enlightened man” (Art Bell July 10,1998).
In other words, Creme is saying when we are convinced he can help he shows up and no one will turn him down, we will be totally accepting him. Because we are in such bad shape we'll try anything ( that is deception to its nth degree) This is very unlike Jesus who came without anyone asking who did infringe on people by telling it like it is. truth was his platform not a feel good spirituality of everyone together and we can solve the problems.
Obama was elected at a time of unprecedented global problems.Many voted him because they felt he was the answer to their problems.

It is also no coincidence that Obama (and several media organizations)"Jokingly" refer to him as being "superman".Superman,Even though a fictional character Shares some striking similarities with the Maitreya.Try Googling "Obama Superman"and see what comes up.
Superman was born on another planet called Krypton,and was transported to earth by His father.In the same way mystics believe that the Maitreya lived in The Tusita heavens( which is reachable through meditation)Before He was born into the world.
Also,Superman is known as "The Man of Tomorrow".Maitreya and His co rulers are known as the "sons of tomorrow"because they are at a more advanced stage of illumination than the rest of Humanity who are referred to as the "sons of today" or even "sons of yesterday"."The sons of tomorrow" is a phrase used to show that they live 100s of years ahead of their contemporaries.
Superman's' task is to save the world from Evil.The Maitreya's task is to save the world by unveiling the "true" dharma to the people and in turn allowing the construction of a new world.A world based on sharing,equality and justice under the rule of the ascended masters.
Also,Superman's identity is concealed to the world.He has an alter ego that appears to be a normal human being but only few people ever realize who he really is and he doesn't let these people reveal His identity.That is the same way the few mystics and occultists who recognize Barack as the Maitreya conceal it from the public.They try deny he is the expected Maitreya in order to fool us into accepting the plan.But the Signs are glaring for all who have eyes to see.
Note:
The "Tusita heaven" should be taken in spiritual terms and not literal terms.It isn't another physical planet or place but a spiritual plane that is outside our physical sphere where mystics believe that Maitreya (and all other Illuminati) are reborn and subsequently attain The "ultimate enlightenment". That is why it is only accessible by meditation.It is the occultist center of perfection and ultimate illumination.
Please Note:
Do not confuse Maitreya with the Antichrist. Maitreya means 'loving Kindness''or world unifier' .One who comes to unite the world into friendly relations and an era of love(remember friendship with the world s enmity with God James 4;4) The Maitreya embodies the Antichrist spirit.He is against all that is of God and all that is worshiped.He is the So called world savior and unifier expected by all religions with the exception of Christianity.
Meanwhile the antichrist is a spirit of rebellion (1 john 4:3).I know many of You might choose to disagree with that because You been made to believe that all Your life but with a careful examination of scriptures You will realize what I'm saying is true.2 jn2:17 says For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.What this verse is trying to say is that anyone who doesn't have proof that Jesus is working in him or her(his flesh), anyone who doesn't manifest righteousness in his mortal body is an antichrist This means that by submitting to this spirit we become antichrists.1 jn 4:4 also explains this better:Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is "He that is in you", than "he that is in the world".He that is in You denotes Christ who lives in us (col 1:27)He that is in the world means this antichrist and satanic spirit (Notice it says he not they so its a single spirit that operates in the world).
Whether You want to believe it or not Obama is the maitreya and he embodies the antichrist spirit and is going to lead the world to compromise and accept this "anti christ" spirit.That he a single person has such a diverse background should show You what his mission is going to be unifying the diverse religions and nations into one,What the aquarian age is all about.
