He [Baha’u’llah] alone is meant by the prophecy attributed
to Gautama Buddha Himself, that “a Buddha named Maitreye, the Buddha of
universal fellowship” should, in the fullness of time, arise and reveal “His
boundless glory.” To Him the Bhagavad-Gita of the Hindus had referred as the
“Most Great Spirit,” the “Tenth Avatar,” the “Immaculate Manifestation of Krishna.”
