The July 1991 cover of Life magazine asked: “Do you believe in miracles?” and reported that thousands of unexplained miraculous phenomena are occurring worldwide. “I did a little digging,” said editor Peter Bonventre, “and it turned out there’d been a rash of sacred apparitions all over the world … There’s a worldwide spiritual revival, and it’s one of the great stories of our time.”
In April 1995, Time magazine devoted an eight-page spread to its cover story on miracles, and concluded: “People are hungry for signs.”
Reports of signs and miracles involving people from all faiths (and those of none) are increasingly reaching the media. For many people, these phenomena provide evidence of the return of a Teacher. According to Benjamin Creme, founding editor of Share International magazine, they are all signs of the imminent emergence of Maitreya, the World Teacher, and his group, the Masters of Wisdom. Maitreya comes now, at the beginning of the Age of Aquarius, to show us the way out of our current difficulties and bring the new teachings which will guide humanity towards its next evolutionary step. Soon we will see Maitreya on television and hear his call for sharing and justice as the only way to peace.
Benjamin Creme writes: “Over many years, Maitreya and his group of Masters have saturated the world with miracles. In the 10th message from Maitreya given in 1977 at one of my public meetings in London, he said: ‘Those who search for signs will find them, but my method of manifestation is more simple.’ All religious groups look for signs. It is through the signs that they know the teacher is in the world or is coming into the world. You only have to keep awake and you will see that signs are everywhere. In every country in the world, in every religious setting, there are signs of one kind or another.”
