I heard:
Before starting His teaching, the Supreme Pure King, incarnation of Lord Supreme Maitreya, emerged from His meditation to see the Amitabha Buddha who asked Him:
- What means are you using to help the living creatures in this Final Law Period?
Lord Supreme Maitreya replied:
- Sir, during this time, when man is wreaking a lot of havoc, I would like to teach them through the virtue of a layman, making use of the secular form, sound, odor, taste, touch and dharma. Therefore, I would help them to free themselves from pollution.
- Right. That is right, answered the Amitabha Buddha. You should transform it that way during this Final Law Period that becomes the second period.
Lord Supreme Maitreya:
- Sir, there are too many attaining and attained disciples in this time, who constitute a big dilemma.
The Amitabha Buddha:
- You should do your best. The Buddha hood is second to none in this time and you know. I am always on the alert to help you.
Lord Supreme Maitreya respectfully left the Blessed One and returned to His residence on the 42 of Hong Bang Street, Nha Trang.
