Balangoda Ananda Maitreya Thero lived a modest life and did a great service for the propagation of Buddhist philosophy. In recognition of his valuable service at the Sixth Buddhist council held in Burma, the Burmese government conferred on him the title Agga Mahapandita ( Chief Great Scholar ) in 1956. Later in March 1997, the Burmese government conferred on Balangoda Ananda Maitreya Thero the highest Sangha title, Abhidhaja Maharatthaguru ( Most Eminent Great Spiritual Teacher ) , which is equivalent to Sangharaja, in honor of his unique service to the Buddhist religion.
