Maitreya in Munich
On
his last lecture in Munich, Germany, on 16. of November
2002, Benjamin Creme, as always, answered many questions
at the end of the lecture. There was also one about Maitreya's
presence in the audience:
Question:
Was and/or is Maitreya present in the audience tonight?
Benjamin Creme: "Maitreya appears more often than
not at my lectures, disguised of course; sometimes as
a man, sometimes as a woman; sometimes old, sometimes
young... This question has real bearing, because Maitreya
was and in fact is still in the audience tonight."
It
was a man that you can see on the pictures below.
After
the lecture A. B. took three pictures of Him
(Old Man I,II,III.jpg) with his photo camera. Saso Segula
Prosenc also filmed Him on the video camera (60 seconds)
and the rest of the pictures on this page are taken from
his camera.
Here is also explanation from Share International:
Over a number of years, some of the Masters, in particular
Maitreya and the Master Jesus, have attended Benjamin
Creme's lectures and meditations; They also appear in
various guises to large numbers of people, especially
those involved in the work for the emergence of Maitreya.
The recipients of these experiences send letters to the
editor of Share International and if authentic — an experience
from a Master — this is confirmed by Benjamin Creme's
Master and published. Those that are not authentic, ie
'ordinary', remain unpublished. The spirit and morale
of people involved in the work for the emergence have
thus been immensely strengthened.
These experiences are given to inspire, to guide or teach,
often to heal and uplift. After the experience the people,
often depressed and unhappy, feel immeasurably relieved
and joyful. In many appearances, and this has happened
for probably hundreds of years, the Masters act as saving
'angels' — for example in accidents, during wartime, earthquakes
and so on. Very often, too, They draw attention to, or
comment on, in an amusing way, some fixed intolerance
(for example against smoking or drinking) held by the
individual involved.
They use a 'familiar', a thoughtform, who seems totally
real, and through whom the Master's thoughts can be expressed.
These familiars take very many forms: They can appear
as a man, a woman, a child, at will. Occasionally They
use the 'blueprint' of a real person, appearing in an
almost identical guise to that individual, but in most
cases the 'familiar' is an entirely new creation or invention
by the particular Master.

Here
are letters to the editor (Benjamin Creme) about this
event as published in Share International magazine in
Jan/Feb. 2003 issue.
Dear
Editor,
At
Benjamin Creme's lecture in Munich on 16 November 2002
I took a lot of photographs for an article in a German
magazine about the Emergence of the World Teacher. At
the end of the lecture a friend came running towards me
and pointed out a person she thought could be Maitreya
(during the lecture Benjamin Creme mentioned that Maitreya
was in the audience). He was an elderly man, dressed in
poor clothes, wearing a cloth cap and pulling a trolley
with a bottle of water sticking out. I took three photographs
of him while he was standing at the book table and was
very impressed with how dignified he was as he looked
at the information materials. Was this man Maitreya?

Dear
Editor,
At
Benjamin Creme's lecture in Munich (November 2002) I sat
in one of the back rows. When Mr Creme started to speak
an elderly man in a checked coat, wearing a beret and
pulling a trolley behind him, walked down the aisle looking
for a seat. As he couldn't find one he turned round and
came back towards the back rows. On either side of me
was a free seat. I had my bag on the seat on my right
and my neighbour had his coat and maps on the seat on
my left. The elderly man looked at these seats and then
directly into my eyes. I felt an incredible heat and had
the impression that the elderly man was giving me a lesson;
since my neighbour and I had taken up so much space there
was none left for him. The elderly man found a seat two
rows behind me and I couldn't stop turning round to look
at him. He gave the impression of being a bit confused,
but the look he gave me was that of an intelligent man
who knew exactly what he was doing. Was he Maitreya?

Dear
Editor,
Our
group had a stand at an esoteric fair in Munich a week
before Benjamin Creme's lecture in Munich (November 2002).
When an elderly man passed our stand I recalled that at
every esoteric fair I have been to in the last three years
I had seen him and that he always wore exactly the same
clothes. I thought how strange it was. I even met him
at an esoteric fair in Austria. Was he Maitreya or a Master?

Dear
Editor,
At
Benjamin Creme's Munich lecture (November 2002) my attention
fell on a man some four rows in front of me. He wore a
winter coat with the collar turned up and had a cream-coloured
cap on his head. I could not see if he was elderly or
young but I could not take my eyes off him.
At
the end of the lecture, as the people moved towards the
exit, many stopped and smiled at him, while others whispered
to each other. Many waited to see what he would do. He
stood up (he was about 1.9 metres tall) and went to the
bookstand at the back of the hall pulling a shopping-cart
on which a bundle and a thermos flask were strapped. He
looked at the books and put his hand on the photograph
of Maitreya's 'hand' as though wanting to feel the energy
of the photograph. He intended to buy the card but a man
next to me asked if he could give him the photo as a gift.
He looked up: he had refined features, a fine nose, brown
eyes and a grey, full beard. His face reminded me of Jesus
as I remembered it from old pictures. The man spoke about
nothing in particular but said something in a broad Bavarian
dialect, which surprised me very much. After a short while
he left the hall. I followed him and saw him get into
a car with a woman. Was that man Maitreya?

Dear
Editor
At
a New Age fair in Regensburg there was an extraordinary
man dressed in shabby clothes, with a few things in his
old backpack, a red scarf, a beret on his head, and an
old coat. I also remember many encounters with him in
the last three years at esoteric fairs in Germany, Austria
and in Italy where we had information stands about Maitreya.
We
talked together often; I told him about Maitreya and the
Masters and he listened carefully but was not too impressed.
I thought he must be a little crazy to visit all these
esoteric fairs, where you always see the same people and
stories. What an unusual person! But I was very pleased
to see him; sometimes he stayed for a whole day, he seemed
to be very interested in all he saw there. He came to
our stand and we talked about God, the world, everything
under the sun. He told me his name Egon and that he came
from Salzburg (Austria). I wondered how he could finance
all his trips as he was obviously poor, his backpack held
together with many safety pins.
He
came to the lectures where I talked about Maitreya. He
sat in the first row, and always seemed to be a little
bit tired, but interested. After a few minutes he fell
asleep — we smiled about him when he breathed noisily.
When he woke up at the end he told me that he liked my
lecture. I thought he could not have heard too much of
it while sleeping.
One
encounter I will never forget: in October 2002 I was at
a fair in Augsburg waiting for a colleague who, it turned
out, could not come. This was awful; I was late and I
had only a few things for the stand — some photos, the
'hand' of Maitreya and about 10 flyers. Inwardly I prayed
to Maitreya for help and guidance, as I felt I could not
do this weekend on my own.
In
the event I had such great support for the whole weekend:
everything went well and it did not really matter that
I had only a few things on the stand. I felt that the
card of Maitreya's 'hand' radiated an intense blessing
whenever I or anybody else looked at it. The "man from
Salzburg" was also there; this time he stayed the whole
weekend. He came to my stand, left his baggage there and
kept me company. We had coffee and cakes. I don't remember
what we talked about but I had a feeling of calming down.
I thought we must look very strange: the table with only
a few things on it, me a little confused, and then Egon
dressed in poor clothes — funny!
The
previous year we discovered circles of light in every
town where we had information stands. This was also the
case in Augsburg, right opposite the hall. I asked Egon
to look out for them and tried to explain that these are
signs from Maitreya. He was not too impressed, he only
smiled. I led him along the road and we looked at the
circles.
Egon
also went to my lecture. I was a little disappointed about
how few people there were. At the beginning I told the
people that they could decide if they wanted to believe
what I say or not, and asked if they could feel Maitreya's
energy right at that moment. It was so intense, as if
he was in the room.
When
Egon returned to our stand I showed him the latest gift
from Maitreya, the 'handprint', and I let him try to feel
the energy flowing from the photograph. He did: he closed
his eyes and stayed for a while. I remember that I was
very happy to see him; he always listened patiently and
sometimes seemed amused. Once I asked him if he could
put out some flyers in Salzburg so that people could read
about Maitreya. He agreed and although his rucksack was
stuffed with things he packed very carefully what I handed
him and promised to ask in shops if they could be displayed.
On
Sunday evening he went with me to the railway station.
He had to wait for his train and so we said goodbye in
the hall. I embraced him and went to the platform. When
I look back to all the fairs, this one in Augsburg made
the most impression on me.
At
Benjamin Creme's lecture in Munich I saw Egon again: dressed
the same and pulling a trolley behind him, he suddenly
entered the hall as the last guest. I was happy to see
him, we said hello and I supposed he had come because
we had invited him a few weeks before. Could it be that
Egon was Maitreya?

Dear
Editor,
At
the beginning of Benjamin Creme's lecture in Munich (November
2002) a tall man walked down the central aisle towards
the stage. He was dressed in a long, brown, old-fashioned
coat and wore a light-brown beret. He was pulling a shopping
trolley behind him with just the metallic frame with a
bundle tied to it. The bundle was so small that he could
easily have carried it. When he turned I could see his
face: he had very smooth shining skin and a prominent
nose. He sat down one row behind me.
I
forgot about him until Mr Creme said that Maitreya was
in the audience. I immediately felt the impulse to turn
around and I saw him sitting there in a very casual manner,
legs wide open, his shoulders lopsided. He had his eyes
closed and both hands were forming a mudra. I looked at
him several times, but he never paid much attention to
his surroundings. At the end of the lecture I looked directly
at him — I knew he was aware that I was looking, but kept
his head inclined and did not address anybody. I left
thinking he preferred not to talk and saw him later in
the crowd close to the Share International photographic
exhibition. Was he Maitreya?

Dear
Editor,
In
October 2002 I helped at a fair in Rosenheim near Munich
with D. M. A man called Egon came to our stand
and talked to her. I greeted him; he was not a stranger
to me but I had no idea where I had seen him before.
At
another fair, three weeks later in Augsburg, Egon again
visited our information-table. We talked a little and
he told me that D. and he went "hunting" circles of
light together last year in Augsburg. He stood a little
time at our stand and looked at Benjamin Creme's books.
I noticed that he was quite smelly and I told myself to
be more tolerant. He told me that he was also at the Salzburg
fair and I asked him how he could afford to travel across
the country from fair to fair and pay the admission fees.
He said he managed somehow. He bought a card of Maitreya's
'hand'.
Egon
was also present at the large esoteric fair in the centre
of Munich a week before Mr Creme's lecture. I remember
him picking up some advertisement flyers and holding them
in his hands very close to his eyes to study the words
very carefully, as if he was a botanist without a magnifying
glass examining a rare plant. I thought: "You are a strange
man. Travelling from one fair to another, just to see
nearly always the same exhibitors." Was he Maitreya or
a Master?
C.
K., Munich, Germany
(Benjamin
Creme's Master confirms that in all seven letters the
elderly man calling himself 'Egon' was, in fact, Maitreya.)
