3. (Of all Lord Buddha's disciples, Sariputta
Thero was best able to understand and explain
the Dharma, and in this way he was only second
to Lord Buddha himself. Once Lord Buddha
said to him: "You are wise, Sariputta, great and
wide is your wisdom, joyful and quick is your
wisdom, sharp and analytical is your wisdom.
Just as the eldest son of a Universal Monarch
rules rightly as his father did, even so do you
turn the wheel of the Dharma just as I have." [
N3 ] Such regard did Lord Buddha have for
Sariputta Thero that he gave him the title
General of the Dharma (Dharmasenapati).

4. A Clue for Open Minded
Teaching and Learning
How to Teach- a discourse by Sāriputta Thero preserved in the
Tipiṭak- Buddhism
When one teaches another he should first establish five things
within himself and then teach.
Let him think:
1.I will speak at the right time, not at the wrong time.
2.I will speak about what is, not about what is not.
3.I will speak with gentleness, not harshness.
4.I will speak about the goal, not about what is not the goal.
5.I will speak with a mind filled with love, not with a mind
filled with ill-will.
First establish these five things and then teach another.'
(A.III,195).

5. The Three Characteristics and the Uncreate-in the
words of Lord Buddha
A Monk had difficulty in understanding the Sermon about
Nirvana and The Uncreate and he asked:
“May I be permitted to ask a question?"When permission
was granted he spoke as follows: [6]
"The Buddha teaches that all conformations are transient,
that all conformations are subject to sorrow, that all
conformations and lacking a self. How then can there be
Nirvana, a state of eternal bliss?"[7]
And the Blessed One, in this connection, on that occasion,
breathed forth this solemn utterance: [8]
"There is, O monks, a state where there is neither earth, nor
water, nor heat, nor air; neither infinity of space nor infinity
of consciousness, nor nothingness, nor perception nor non-
perception;neither this world nor that world, neither sun
nor moon. It is the uncreate. [9]
02

6. "That, O monks,
I term neither coming nor going nor standing;
neither death nor birth.
It is without stability, without change;
it is the eternal which never originates ,and never passes
away.
There is the end of sorrow. [10]
"It is hard to realize the essential,
the truth is not easily perceived;
desire is mastered by him who knows,
and to him who sees aright all things are naught. [11]
"There is, O monks,
an unborn, unoriginated, uncreated, unformed.**
Were there not, O monks, this unborn, unoriginated,
uncreated, unformed, there would be no escape from the
world of the born, originated, created, formed. [12]
03

7. "Since, O monks, there is an unborn, unoriginated,
uncreated, and unformed, therefore is there an escape
from the born, originated, created, formed." [13] Ch26
** This could be understood as the Uncreate as in the
Quran Ch113 V1-4 (substitute the word Allah with
Uncreate) Allah is an Arabic word for the Uncreate, and has
far more attributes than I have presently understood from
Lord Buddha's Teachings .
Say: He is Allah, the One and Only;
Allah, the Eternal, Absolute;
He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;
And there is none like unto Him.

8. The Praise of All the Buddhas
## All the Buddhas are wonderful and glorious. There is not
their equal upon earth. They reveal to us the path of life.
And we hail their appearance with pious reverence. [1]
All the Buddhas teach the same truth. They point out the
path to those who go astray. *The truth is our hope and
comfort. We gratefully accept its illumitable light. [2]
# All the Buddhas are one in essence,
** Which is omnipresent in all modes of being,
Sanctifying the bonds that tie all souls together,
* And we rest in its bliss as our final refuge.
[3] End Chapter 100 and The End
From the above it is very clear many Buddhas would
come, all will teach the same message, and help mankind to
the right path. Please note that this is exactly what the
Quran says: "The Messenger believes in what has been
revealed to him from his Lord, as do the men of faith
05

9. #. Each one of them believes in God, His angels, His books,
and His Messengers.
They say: 'We make no distinction between one and
another of His Messengers.
And they say: 'We hear, and we obey.
We seek Thy forgiveness, Our Lord, and to Thee is the end
of all journeys.'" (Al-Baqarah, 2:285)
##"And for every Ummah (a community or a nation),
there is a Messenger; when their Messenger comes, the
matter will be judged between them with justice, and they will
not be wronged." (Qur'an 10:47)
**The Prophet Muhammad said, "No babe is born but upon
Fitra (belief in the UNCREATED). It is his parents who make
him a Jew or a Christian or a Polytheist." (Sahih Muslim, Book
033, Number 6426)

study of Stone-Age Kapauku tribe [[1], pp. 96] who led their
aboriginal lives undisturbed by the spreading western
civilization until 1938 similar belief in the Uncreated
# Buddhas/Messengers similarities and purpose
## Many Buddhas/Messengers to every nation through
Time
* The Truth- another word for Uncreate
* Fitra- one in essence, which is omnipresent in all modes
of being, (perhaps similar meaning)
The Last Buddha, and how to Identify
And Ananda Thero, suppressing his tears, said to the Blessed
One: "Who shall teach us when thou art gone?"[12]
07

11. And the Blessed One replied:
"I am not the first Buddha who came upon earth,
nor shall I be the last.
In due time another Buddha will arise in the world,
a Holy One, a supremely enlightened One,
endowed with wisdom in conduct,
auspicious, knowing the universe,
an incomparable leader of men,
a master of angels and mortals.
He will reveal to you the same eternal truths
which I have taught you.
He will preach his religion,
glorious in its origin,
glorious at the climax,
and glorious at the goal,
in the spirit and in the letter.
He will proclaim a religous life,
wholly perfect and pure;
such as I now proclaim."[13]
Ananda Thero said: "How shall we know him?"[14]
The Blessed One said:
"He will be known as Metteyya,
08

12. which means 'he whose name is kindness.'" [15] End Chapter 96
This is very interesting in that it gives definitive clues:
1.This should be the last Buddha, as he mentions of other
Buddhas before and after.
2. An incomparable leader of men
3. He will preach his religion, glorious in its origin, glorious at the
climax, and glorious at the goal, in the spirit and in the letter.
4. He will be known as Metteyya,
*Prophet Mohamed (pbuh) as per Quran is the last
Messenger(Prophet)
*It is the youngest Religion, yet the FASTEST growing Reliogion
(as per Readers Digest)
*Those who practice far outnumber other Religions and follow in
Spirit and Letter
*Preaching the Eternal Truth, and Brotherhood
*The Whole World Reverberts with the Glory of Uncrate every
moment of Time-Islamic Azan is said 5Times a day in every
corner of the Earth

if we know even one thing!).
