Divine spiritual Being with a vibrational energy range beyond that of the levels of the Ascended Masters and just below that of Universal Source. The Ascended Master levels emanate from the Maitreya energies. Maitreya is the inspiration and source for the Lightarian Empowerment Ray and can be viewed as the divine architect for the global/human ascension process here on Earth. We call him the Ascension Master

Rahmat Ahmad, better known by the adopted name of Maitreya, referred to by his supporters as "the Lord Maitreya", describes himself as the World Teacher, and is promoted by Benjamin Creme through the organisation, Share International. According to Creme, Maitreya says he does not come to start a new religion, but rather to aid humanity with our problems, to inspire us to share, to implement justice, freedom, and ultimately create world peace. He also says that he will inaugurate the new time by teaching us who we really are, about our past and future, and about the art of self-realisation.
