Maitreya, sometimes referred to as the "Future Buddha," is thought to be a Bodhisattva who is presently a resident in Tusita Heaven. He will come down to Earth, reach full enlightenment, and impart the pure Dharma. The expectation of Maitreya symbolizes a shared optimism for a world full of compassion, wisdom, and harmony in the future. It highlights the continuation and enduring relevance of the Buddha's teachings and encourages the present generation to practice the virtues required to establish such a world. This promise is realized in the Radiant Maitreya Buddha Sculpture, a source of inspiration for living kindly and foresightedly in the present and a beacon of light for the future.
