Sublime Continuum of the Great Vehicle (Uttaratantra) I used this (Sublime Continuum of the Great Vehicle(Uttarantantra) to research more for you about Maitreya Buddha. The following is one of the things I found.

UttaratantraSublime Continuum of Mahayana
I bow to the one who, with no beginning, middle or end, has a serene stillness and is clear-minded and fully evolved, who became clear from his own aspects and once clear, shows fearless, constant paths of the mind to bring realisation to those with no realisation
One of the major texts studied in all traditions of Tibetan Buddhism, Maitreyas Sublime Continuum clarifies the meaning of our Buddha potential, in particular the emptiness of the mind that allows evolution to a state of complete enlightenment.

I really love this following invocation quoted in the above text from the above webpage.
I bow to the one who, with no beginning, middle or end, has a serene stillness and is clear-minded and fully evolved, who became clear from his own aspects and once clear, shows fearless, constant paths of the mind to bring realisation to those with no realisation

For those of you new to Buddhism what is being said here translated for you is: You are choosing(if this is your wish) to bow to the one(Buddha) who never began and will never end and who always has existed, who has a serene stillness, who is level headed and sees clearly everything, who has all the magical attainments(Like a Mahasiddha) which means this guy(Buddha) can levitate, read minds, appear and disappear at will, heal the sick, raises the dead etc.(basically someone a lot like Jesus and Guatama Buddha, who became realized through his own efforts and once he became clear(fully enlightened) moved forward in fearless constant ways(paths) of the mind to bring realisation(enlightenment and the permanent end of suffering) to those who don't have it yet.
That's some really powerful yet compassionate and enlightening stuff.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
