Talk:Kings of Shambhala

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think the dates on this might be wrong. If Suchandra lived from 900 BCE to 876 BCE, and Siddhartha Gautama lived from 563 BCE to 483 BCE (all approximate dates), how could he have received the Kalachakra from him? By these dates Suchandra died a long time before the Buddha was born. --Horses In The Sky 10:51, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Good observation. I think there is probably an esoteric explanation for it. I'm going to invite Rudy, the webmaster of "Kalachakra.net", to comment. Sylvain1972 13:43, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi this is Rudy (rudyh01 login)- not sure how to use this discussion forum, but trying... Anyway, you are very right! Point is that according to the Kalachakra calculations, Shakyamuni Buddha lived quite a bit earlier then the generally accepted dates; perhaps we could make a brief note of that. As nobody knows the exact dates anyway, there is not necessarily a 'right' and 'wrong' in this...

What is the diffrence between the Kings of Shambhala and Maitreya? NicholasPrakash 05:03, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

I think Maitreya is forecast to come much later. It's an interesting question though. I'm not sure how congruent the two prophesies are, if that's what you mean. Sylvain1972 15:50, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
