An inheritor of the will of Buddha, who is promised to save people in the distant future. In ancient India, Maitreya was called Maitreya, meaning one born of compassion. Maitreya Bodhisattva, also known as the "Future Buddha," is promised to become a Buddha, so he is also called Maitreya Buddha or Maitreya Tathagata, and will become a Buddha in this world 5.67 billion years after the death of the Buddha. He is said to be a bodhisattva who appears and saves those who were not saved by the teachings of Buddha. By the way, 5.67 billion years from now is roughly the life expectancy for the solar system including the Earth to disappear.Currently, Tosotsuten is located in the sky above Mt. Shumisen, which towers in the center of the Buddhist world. He is training in a heavenly world called Ten. One theory is that there is a real person who serves as a model, and as a disciple of Shakyamuni Buddha, he had a deep understanding of Buddhism and was well versed in it, so it is said that he was promised a future Buddha.
