Share International Foundation is a non-profit organization in London founded by Benjamin Creme (1922–2016) with sister organizations in Amsterdam, Tokyo, and Berkeley, California.[1][2] From their 'about us' page, Share International describes the group as: "A worldwide network of individuals... whose purpose is to make known the fact that Maitreya ― the World Teacher for the coming age ― and his group, the Masters of Wisdom, are now among us..."[3]
According to Share International, Maitreya, a great Avatar (which means "coming down from far away" in Sanskrit),[4] has been living among the Asian community in London since 19 July 1977, and presently is in the process of emerging publicly worldwide.[5][6]
