In 1982, Wayne Peterson was introduced to Maitreya, an enigmatic spiritual teacher who many believe is the Christ living again on Earth. Peterson documents his own meetings with Maitreya and recounts Maitreya's many good works since his emergence. Included are the numerous signs that Maitreya is already at work in our lives, both as a spiritual teacher, and, through appearances to many of the world's most powerful leaders, the true power behind the power.
