 Lord Maitreya, The Antichrist
 
The New Age religion will have a worldwide leader, an individual that they call Lord Maitreya.This individual has not made his public appearance yet, but the New Agers claim that he is on the earthat the present time. They claim that he came to live with the Asian community in East London,England, in July, 1977, by "descending" from his ancient retreat in the Himalayan Mountains alongthe border of India and Tibet. They further believe that "his imminent emergence into full public view isassured. "They also claim that this individual is the one that the Christians call Christ, the Jews call theMessiah, the Buddhists call the Fifth Buddha, the Hindus call Krishna, and the Muslims call theImam Mahdi. In other words, all of the major religions of the world are awaiting the arrival of this oneindividual. It is their claim that this one individual living now in London is the one expected by allof these religions. And he is on the earth now, patiently waiting for the appointed time to revealhis existence to the peoples of the world. He will apparently assume the leadership of all of thesereligions, and when he does, he will create a one-world religion.The New Agers have written that in the esoteric tradition (previously defined as being intended for or understood by only a chosen few as an inner group of disciples or initiates) the word "Christ" is not thename of an individual, but the name of an office, or function, within the Spiritual Hierarchy of Masters.The masters are a group of perfected men who have guided human evolution from behind the scenesfor centuries. And they believe that this Lord Maitreya is that Christ.Manly P. Hall has written of this individual, by identifying him as:"... the way, the truth, and the life which, coming to every life, redeems all who accept it."Texe Marrs has quoted this individual as saying:"My Army is ready for battle, My masters of Wisdom and Myself at the head. That battle will be fought for the continuance of man on this earth. Rest assured that my Army shall triumph. "It appears that the battle to be fought between the followers of Lord Maitreya and the rest of humanity isstill in the future. But at least one of the participants has an army already prepared.One who claims to have seen the birth in a "vision" of someone who seems to fulfill therequirements of this Maitreya was astrologer Jeanne Dixon. Her major claim to being a "prophet" isher prediction, reportedly made before the event, of the assassination of President John Kennedy
 
in 1963. However, her credentials were dealt a serious blow in 1968 when she also "prophesied" thatthe Soviet Union would be the first to put a man on the moon. Another of her "prophecies" was thatthe Republican Party would be victorious in 1968 (and it was with the election of Richard Nixon,a Republican,) but she also predicted that "within the following decade (1970-1979) the two-partysystem as we have known it will vanish from the American scene. "She further predicted that Richard M. Nixon had "excellent vibrations for the good of America" andwould "serve [the] country well. "Those who question her inability to correctly predict that America, not the Soviet Union, wouldbecome the first to place a man on the moon; and that the two-party system has not vanished from thescene; and that President Nixon apparently did not have "good vibrations" for this nation andwould later be removed from office by the event commonly referred to as "Watergate," can onlypresume that she must have been given "inside" information about the assassination of thePresident Kennedy. And that would account for her knowing, at least in that event, the true future.Secondly, one can only wonder why this "non-prophet" should be listened to about anything after her appalling record on "prophecies," but there is reason to believe that she might have been asked towrite an account of this "vision" of an important birth by the New Age religion because they wantedthe official imprimatur of someone commonly referred to as a "prophet. " In other words, her "prophecy"might have been written to legitimize his claim to be a man-god so that when this individual made hispublic appearance himself, the public would marvel at the fact that his birth had fulfilled a prophecy.But in any event Ruth Montgomery wrote a book about her entitled THE GIFT OF PROPHECY, inwhich she wrote about the very revealing and intriguing vision that Jeanne Dixon allegedly had:"The vision which [Jeanne] considers the most significant and soul-stirring of her life occurred onFebruary 5, 1962.She saw the brightest sun she had ever seen. [The reader is asked to remember this reference to"the sun. ']Stepping out of the brightness were a Pharaoh and Queen Nefertiti. [Remember here that these twoindividuals were Egyptians. This will become significant later on in this study.] The couple ...thrust forth [a] baby, as if offering it to the entire world. "Jeanne looked at the baby and then said, according to the author:"I knew 'Here is the beginning of wisdom.' "So what Ruth Montgomery wrote can be summarized as follows:
 
A sun deity gives the world a child, from Egypt, who possesses enormous "wisdom." And this eventallegedly took place on February 5, 1962. The interpretation of these symbols will be discussed later and their alleged significance will be developed.Jeanne then says:"A child, born somewhere in the Middle East shortly after 7 a.m. (E.S.T.) on February 5, 1962, willrevolutionize the world. Before the close of the century he will bring together all mankind in one all-embracing faith.Mankind will begin to feel the great force of this man in the early 1980's, and during the subsequentten years the world as we know it will be reshaped into one without wars and suffering. Hispower will grow greatly until 1999 [this year is extremely significant as will also be developed] at whichtime the peoples of this earth will probably discover the full meaning of the vision. "So according to this "vision," a child, born on February 5, 1962, will grow up to bring a one-worldreligion onto the face of the earth, and his efforts will be successful in 1999.The New York Times newspaper ran three consecutive articles on the conjunction of five planets, thesun, the moon and an "invisible body that astrologers call Khetu, " starting on February 4, 1962. Thefirst article stated that the various bodies moved into "rough alignment in the constellation Capricorn at7:05 A.M., New York time," and that they would "remain in that alignment until 7:17 A.M., New Yorktime, Monday. "However, the article went on to say that most of the people in India became alarmed, becausemost astrologers were making "predictions of disasters. " There were a few astrologers who werepredicting good for the world as a result of this alignment, but "few Indians appear[ed] to be payingthem much heed."Astronomers did not consider the event to be rare, however, and the article went on to report that"the same configuration [had] occurred several times in the past," the last time being in April, 1821,and then it occurred twice. The article reported that Dr. Kenneth L. Franklin of the Museum of NaturalHistory-Hayden Planetarium in New York had commented that that year does not seem to be a year oany remembered disasters. He was then quoted as saying: "And that year isn't famous for anything,as far as I know. "Dr. Franklin also commented on the body the astrologers call Khetu. He "speculated that it may besome sort of astrological addition used to make everything come out right." He then added that hebelieved Khetu "to be the invisible planet that is frequently taken into account in astrologicalreckonings, but that he had no idea how it was possible to keep track of something that no one could see."
