Buddha Gautama, Buddha Maitreya, ​Buddha Yasodhara

To celebrate Buddha Week,  we will first briefly remind ourselves of its significance in the calendar of events for The Theosophical Fellowship. 

We then connect the triangle of Buddha Gautama, Buddha Maitreya and Buddha Yasodhara in the light of Maitreya Theosophy.

And finally, we bridge the establishment of Right Human Relations to the teachings of the Buddhas.
