      The Buddha didn't say he was coming back. The Buddha said that there would be a future Buddha at some point: Maitreya. That could be many thousands of years away. In Buddhism we forsake God, we explicitly reject Him. We reject all creation, and embrace only the dark: emptiness, in which all things are fundamentally non-distinct.
