Jesus Christ died in India!

What you say holds much truth...Egypt in those days was kind of THE centre of all things in those regions, and Jesus was brought up in Egypt in his childhood (as sndcain has illuminated me) so it would have made sense for him to go to Egypt in his teens to learn trade or whatever. Also the discontent brewing against him was definitely in the open, so he could have fled before crucification. Regarding post-crucification, India or some unknown place could be the choice if he wanted to stay incognito. What's confusing to me really is the fact that if you see the evidence, the people of Kashmir region are distinct in features from the rest of us in India (it is said they are from Jewish origin, some of the lost tribes of Israel)and Jesus went there to continue with his mission towards the Children of Israel. Secondly, the tomb referred to has its direction in the Jewish tradition of burial rather than the surrounding Islamic direction of tombs. BUT is it possible that if someone of Jesus' stature is buried there, its got so completely lost in history that even we, in India, dont know of it much? Or is it possible coz Jesus was not such a big stature to the people here in those time as its known that his cult spread mainly thru his disciples,long after his 'crucification'...or maybe it was known till the spread of Islam in Kashmir after which tomb lost its fame or was deliberately ignored?

I'm chking out this site right now

Yes, I know about the Ahmedias, they are a separate sect unto themselves. What I am talking about however, is the migration of Jesus immediately after crucification and his settling in Kashmir valley (where supposedly some of the lost tribe of Israel were staying), spreading his teachings to them and dying at a ripe old age. Fascinating to say the least!

Yeah It's a fascinating story Thanks Njoy

Don’t know about being on fire Ganesh, but seriously I was taken completely aback when I came across this and the way the evidences are provided on various sites in the net, you would be compelled to believe it. That’s why I started this discussion as I want to know from my friends out here, many of whom are very knowledgeable and logical on religious matters.

Knowledge and logic will not work when it comes to religious faiths.

I sure hope I haven’t offended you…I do not intend to make this a blasphemous post, I just want to see what my fellow members think, I am as intrigued and confused by this.

It's created by men but not ordinary ones..they're prophets, godly and holy people God have chosen in order for us to know the truth.

Yes, I too am interested in the historical part, rather than the religious one. I started this discussion coz its intriguing to me too, and I wanted to see if any member can give any new inputs on this.

2nd Timothy 4:3,4 3. For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

Marianne, I am absolutely and totally confused. The incident itself is so fascinating and fantastic, it seems something out of the realms of belief and non-belief. And the way the sites support their views with documents and evidences and historical anecdotes of travelers to those Buddhist caves where supposedly age old scrolls are kept with records, and then the Shroud of Turin…giving very scientific explanations as to why the Shroud is yet another proof that Jesus was brought down alive…simply mind blowing so I though let me blow all your brains too, why only me…let’s see that the mylot poll says Regarding religion…nothing to worry, I am not a very worth Hindu either!

Maybe we should get together and become Buddhists (but not very good ones).

OK but he is supposedly buried in Srinagar, Kashmir a Muslim majority state in India and his shrine is revered and protected by the Muslims there with the complete knowledge of who he is.

But that's just a supposition you and I both haven't seen this in real or on TV and even if I had seen his shrine there protected by Muslims then still lots of doubts would remain because I've seen some Muslims and they believe anything you tell them. I would only believe such a story if some one of high repute comes up with a lot of authentic evidence to support that Jesus is buried in Srinagar. Even then I won't believe the part of him being resurrected there because yoga and coming back from deep meditation are not resurrection.

That's the way to go

I'm sure Christianity is a very true and deep-rooted religion and has stood the test of time...so it wont be just relegated to any insignificant cult just like that. People who believe will always believe and people who seek will always do so...its the truth of all major religions.
