弥勒菩萨

举个例子来说，目前掌理兜率天净土的弥勒菩萨&五尊佛，比他的老师释迦牟尼佛早证悟。

For instance , the fifth Buddha - Maitreya , who now presides over Tushita pureland , enlightened before his teacher , Shakyamuni Buddha .

弥勒菩萨将会是历史上释迦牟尼佛的继承者。

Maitreya Bodhisattva will be the successor of the historic Sakyamuni Buddha .

学习弥勒菩萨的胸怀，宽容豁达。

Learn the tolerance of Maitreya Bodhisattva , be magnanimous and open-minded .

如弥勒菩萨于释迦牟尼佛之后，候补作佛。

For example , Maitreya Bodhisattva became a candidate for Buddhahood after Shakyamuni buddha .

为了表示对他的上师的尊敬，弥勒菩萨的前额上有一座佛塔。

To show respect for his guru , Maitreya has a stupa on his forehead .

它跟着弥勒菩萨修行在洞穴里坐了12年。

who was looking to realize Maitreya Buddha after 12 years sitting in the cave .

而且佛陀的继位者并不是声闻阿罗汉，而是弥勒菩萨。

In addition , the successor of the Buddha is not an arhat of Sravakayana but is Bodhisattva Maitreya .

弥勒是一位菩萨，一些佛教徒甚至相信将会出现在地上，成就完全的启迪，教导纯正的教法。

Maitreya is a bodhisattva who some Buddhists believe will eventually appear on earth , achieve complete enlightenment , and teach the pure dharma .
