He was raised in a normal household and taught solid American and Judeo-Christian values. At eight years old, he was killed in an accident but was miraculously revived. During the time of his worldly death, he had many amazing experiences culminating in God taking him into Perfect Final Union with Himself "as a drop of water falling into the sea becomes Sea." God then asked him to return to this earth to do a wondrous work, which he did.&#13;
&#13;
For more than 20 years Maitreya wandered in the wilderness of this world, alternately seeking and running away from his Destiny. Finally in 1977, he died in the Spirit and found The Way back Home into Perfect Final Union with God by his own Works. God again asked him to return to this world to finish The Work He had given him. Maitreya accepted and made a Sacred Vow directly to God that he would never again enter into Perfect Final Union with Him until he had gotten every last Soul Home into Perfect Final Union with God before himself.&#13;
&#13;
Because of this Vow of Compassion, God made a New Covenant with all Souls that "Whosoever will receive The Friend's Holy Initiation and follow him to the end of this life, I will give unto that Soul the very Perfect Final Union with Me that The Friend has sacrificed for the sake of all Souls." By this, God's Eternal Universal Religion became a living Reality in our Time through the Supreme Self-Sacrifice of Maitreya The Friend of All Souls.&#13;
&#13;
God's Eternal Universal Religion is a Universal Religion - born in America. This Holy Book of Destiny is the Bible of God's Eternal Universal Religion. It is the first Holy Book in the world to be first published as a digital book.&#13;
&#13;
Maitreya lives in Southern California, where he continues his work to this day, guiding his Maitreyians all over the world and preparing The Way for future generations of new Maitreyians to create Divine Critical Mass and win the Liberation of all Souls from suffering, sorrow, death and rebirth.&#13;

&lt;span class="style35"&gt;Maitreya The Friend of all Souls&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;What can I say to you except The Truth? And what good can or could come of saying anything other than The Truth to you?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;If you were to join me because of a lie – it would only be a matter of time before The Truth would reveal itself and it would all come to &lt;u&gt;nothing&lt;/u&gt;. Or, worse.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;No! I can see no good to come from pretense. Only The Truth sets all Souls free of Suffering, Sorrow, Pain, Death and&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Rebirth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;Therefore, I show you myself in the light of Truth and let the decision as to what you will do – be your own - just as the decision and decisions as to what I will do are my own. Because this Teacher/Student, Leader/Follower, Satguru/Sishya relationship is a two-way street. You must accept me, but for it to come to anything, I must also accept you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;The main difference between you and me is that I have what you need – not the other way around. And you must bear in mind, that while I am pledged to give God’s New Covenant and Supreme Promise of Universal &lt;span style="layout-grid-mode: line;"&gt;Salvation and Liberation&lt;/span&gt; to all Souls and Free all Souls from the Endless Wheel of Birth, Suffering, Sorrow, Pain, Death and Rebirth – I am not obligated to you – personally - at this or any particular time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;For, you see, I must – by this very obligation – choose – hopefully wisely – who I spend my very limited time on and with. And my criteria is and must be – that I will spend my time the most and my attention most intensely on those who can and are willing and able to do the most to elevate themselves Spiritually – and most important, who will do the most to further our Holy Mission of getting God’s New Covenant to all Souls and getting all Souls Home to Perfect Final Union with God and Perfect Total Freedom; by helping me to create Divine Critical Mass and bring forth The Age of Universal God’s Pure Divine Truth for the &lt;span style="layout-grid-mode: line;"&gt;Salvation and Liberation&lt;/span&gt; of all Souls and to Secure the Continued Survival of Humanity. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;I am not in this world to take – but to give. And you – if you would become a Maitreyian and follow me according to God’s New Covenant and Supreme Promise – must come to me and stay with me as I come to you – not to take - but to give.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;This is The Truth. You must be right, ready, willing and able to follow me – for that is God’s requirement for fulfilling His New Covenant. You must also be right, ready, willing and able to give of yourself and your resources to all Suffering Souls as I have done and do. And, you may not come and soak up or dilute my energy, time, efforts or resources into yourself for yourself alone. There are plenty of “teachers” who are selling themselves for money who are ready, though usually not able, to help you with you and your problems. I am not one of them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;If you want to follow me – and fulfill God’s New Covenant and attain Perfect Final Union with God and Perfect Total Freedom – you must forget yourself and serve Humanity by serving me and God in The Holy Cause, Mission and Purpose He has given me to accomplish in this world for the Universal &lt;span style="layout-grid-mode: line;"&gt;Salvation and Liberation&lt;/span&gt; of all Souls and the Continued Survival of Humanity.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;Nothing less will do.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;This is The Truth – for better or worse.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;Because of this, the first thing is for you to decide is whether to accept me as Maitreya The Friend of All Souls and receive God’s New Covenant and Supreme Promise and to make my Holy Mission your Holy Mission through my Holy Initiation. And, above all, to follow me according to God’s New Covenant. This is the first thing, because until and unless you do so, there is nothing more for us to do.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;The second thing is for me to decide whether or not to accept you into my Religion and Holy Order and Community as a Maitreyian. In this, you have no say. As your decision is and must be purely your own, my decision is and must be directly made by me or made by me through a Maitreyian in Good Faith whom I have appointed to decide on my behalf, guided by my outer Teachings and Instructions and by my Inner Divine Guidance and that of God. But you can influence the outcome by your attitude and your actions.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;Whether it comes directly from me or from one I have appointed and anointed to act on my behalf, my decision is final and is not arguable. But it is not capricious and will often be based on how you perform and interact with myself and other Maitreyians during your trial period. Because the bottom line for me is primarily how well you can work in harmony and unity with me and my Maitreyians and, above all, how much you contribute practically and in Spirit to the furtherance of that harmony and unity and the advancement of my and our Holy Mission. And, in the reverse, how much you cause disharmony or division or detract from or cause distraction from the internal harmony and the external advancement of the Holy Mission.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;This is the main test you must pass and continue to pass for as long as you are a Maitreyian and a member of my Holy Order and Holy Community. Also involved in this “test” is how quickly and how well you accept, adopt and make my Religion and our Values and Ways&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;your own and progress toward becoming a Soldier of The Light and living a life of True Selfless Service to God, myself, our Holy Order, Community and Mission and to all Suffering Souls.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;If all of these tests are met and passed and you find yourself to be a natural fit with them and me and us, you will have a happy time and life as a Maitreyian. If not, then the best thing is for you to go your way in peace, for you will be miserable and will make those who are naturally comfortable with being Maitreyians miserable. And, bluntly and honestly, I and those who are appointed and anointed by me to be guardians of my Religion will exclude you from my Holy Order and Community; not because I want to, for I am not in this world to exclude any Soul. But, because my Holy Cause, Purpose and Mission and the Salvation and Liberation of all Souls and the Continued Survival of Humanity must be my first and foremost consideration.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="just"&gt;If you are offended or put off by these words you have read or my attitude or approach – then you will certainly fail to meet the challenge and pass the tests required for a man or woman to become a Maitreyian and it is far better that you stop now and go upon another way. But, if you are inspired and excited by what you have read, then you have a good chance of passing these tests and entering into Service as a Maitreyian and, later as Soldier of The Light.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Jai Bhagavan Ji!&lt;br /&gt;
Victory To God The Beloved.&lt;br /&gt;
Victory to Our Holy Cause&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Maitreya The Friend of All Souls&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div style="font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maitreya The Friend of All Souls was born John Lee Douglas in 1943. He was raised in a normal household and taught solid American and Judeo-Christian values. At eight years old, he was killed in an accident but was miraculously revived. During the time of his worldly death, he had many amazing experiences culminating in God taking him into Perfect Final Union with Himself "as a drop of water falling into the sea becomes Sea." God then asked him to return to this earth to do a wondrous work, which he did. For more than 20 years Maitreya wandered in the wilderness of this world, alternately seeking and running away from his Destiny. Finally in 1977, he died in the Spirit and found The Way back Home into Perfect Final Union with God by his own Works. God again asked him to return to this world to finish The Work He had given him. Maitreya accepted and made a Sacred Vow directly to God that he would never again enter into Perfect Final Union with Him until he had gotten every last Soul Home into Perfect Final Union with God before himself. Because of this Vow of Compassion, God made a New Covenant with all Souls that "Whosoever will receive The Friend's Holy Initiation and follow him to the end of this life, I will give unto that Soul the very Perfect Final Union with Me that The Friend has sacrificed for the sake of all Souls." By this, God's Eternal Universal Religion became a living Reality in our Time through the Supreme Self-Sacrifice of Maitreya The Friend of All Souls.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;God's Eternal Universal Religion is a Universal Religion - born in America. This Holy Book of Destiny is the Bible of God's Eternal Universal Religion. It is the first Holy Book in the world to be first published as a digital book.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;Maitreya lives in Southern California, where he continues his work to this day, guiding his Maitreyians all over the world and preparing The Way for future generations of new Maitreyians to create Divine Critical Mass and win the Liberation of all Souls from suffering, sorrow, death and rebirth.&lt;/div&gt;</description><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAShCpP0-lpKnR3sKSkif6-u40wh1W74QYH66xwF_pBbVc9zvkN2UYVigYYtiCkyhS7u_4N8utsBEXLk_H9WCR7oRdzRVVOjH22C0bPQdQPKUjjbdCD_3I5IaWtAVJOWH1t85D9s95dcs/s72-c/Picture-for-Freedom%2521-Podcast.jpg" width="72"/><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><author>maitreya@maitreyathefriend.com (Maitreya Friend)</author><enclosure length="35831141" type="audio/mpeg" url="http://www.maitreyathefriend.com/podcast/Freedom.mp3"/><itunes:explicit>no</itunes:explicit><itunes:subtitle>Maitreya The Friend speaks on God-Given freedom as one of the highest qualities of every soul.
