Was Jesus Christ a Hindu?
The new book, titled as 'Jesus the Christ was a Hindu' published by Indian
Foundation for Vedic Science is the English translation of the original book is authored by the late G.D. alias Babarao Savarkar, a great revolutionary, who was the elder brother of Veer Savarkar. Babarao Savarkar was sent to the famous Cellular Jail of the Andamans, for rigorous imprisonment. In that horrible jail, he was imprisoned from 1910 to 1921. When he was allowed to read the books available in that jail, Babarao Savarkar read many English books on the life of Jesus the Christ and was convinced that Jesus Christ was a Tamil Hindu. On release from the jail he wrote a book in Marathi showing how Jesus Christ was a Hindu. The book was published in 1946; but before the publication he had lost his life, on 16th March 1945. Dr. P. V. Vartak from Pune has translated this marvelous research book in lucid and easy English. Apparently, to say that Jesus was a Hindu, appears to be ridiculous, but on reading this book everybody will be convinced that Jesus was a Hindu. He was the preacher of Vedic Dharma. Christianity did not denote the religion of Jesus but it denoted the Krishna nity or Geeta, since Jesus was the propagator of the theology of Geeta. So Jesus didn't start any new religion. It was later after his death that Christianity was introduced as a new faith other than the Vedic one. Deep research of Shri. Babarao Savarkar presented in this book shows that Jesus was a Tamil Hindu. Jesus Christ did not go himself to Palestine, but his ancestors migrated there long ago. Long before Ramayana, Yayati's sons Anu and Turvasu migrated there, from whom arose the Yavanas and Turuks. After the Mahabharata war Yadavas and Abhiras migrated there from India. The word Yadava became 'Yada', while ' Abhira' became Habira and then Hibru. Their God Almighty was 'Jehova' the Fire of yajna which is registered in the Rigveda 7-6-5, where is stated "Jahvo Agnih". Aristotal was told by a Jew scholar that Jews were originally Indians. Many western scholars admit it. The name 'Aremaik' of Palestinian language has arisen from a Sanskrit word 'Arvam' denoting "Tamil". It contains many Tamil words. When crucified Jesus uttered, "Eloi, Eloi, Lama Sabacthani". This is a Tamil sentence, its original form being "Eloi, Eloi, Sabikka Lamada Ni ", which means "Oh God, why are you crushing or cursing me like this?" Many ancient European portraits of Christ illustrated in this book show Hindu signs on him like dark complexion, a sacred thread, hanging from his left shoulder, a Dhoti around his waist, a Tilaka on forehead, a Mudra of his fingers, a Danda in his hand and saffron robe. Those portraits are painted by Christian European artists some 1500 years ago. Jesus was called 'Ben Pandera'. In Tamil 'Ben' means Child and 'Pandera' means Devotee. The name Mary arose from Marium, which came from Tamil 'Mariamma'. Her portraits show Hindu signs on her body. Her pictures are also ancient, sketched around 1500 years ago. Sister of Christ was named 'Thamar' which means Lotus in Tamil, and it is a custom in India to keep name of a girl as lotus. Jesus often told parables from 'Gheeda'. Gheeda is a corrupt form of 'Geeta'. There was no such book as Gheeda around Palestine before Jesus. He told stories of Jash. 'Jash' is a corrupt form of 'Vyasa'. [like Vyankappa = Yankappa. Yajna = Jajna]. 'Jesus' is derived from Greek 'Jeshua', a deviation of Keshua or Keshava. He was supposed to be incarnation of Krishna. The term 'Krishna' corrupted into 'Krishta' and 'Christ'. Therefore he was termed as 'Jesus the Christ', meaning Keshava the incarnation of Krishna. Though a carpenter he is called 'Good Shepherd', in memory of 'Gopala' Krishna; because he was supposed to be an incarnation of Krishna. There are many pictures of Jesus just like lord Krishna and his incarnations. After his Thread ceremony at 12 years of age, he went to India for studies and returned at 30. He wore a Philacteris made of Teckilim or Darbha. He emphasized a second birth (Dvija) for getting Heaven. This 'Dvija' is the unique concept of Vedic people. Ample evidence has been showered in the book to prove that Christ was a Hindu. Savarkar has given evidence to show connection of Jesus with the Nath cult of Indian Yogis. A Bengali poem sung traditionally in Nath Cult is cited in the book, in which Jesus is mentioned as 'Isha Nath', who had gone to Arab country, died there, but revived again. In that poem Isha Nath is honoured as a Parama Guru. Finally, Jesus came to India and died in Kashmir. There are three tombs in Kashmir - of Jesus, of Marium and of John, the Guru of Jesus. The whole book is fascinating and is full of strong evidences. Life sketch of Jesus is presented in a respectful manner. The esteem about Jesus increases on reading this book. The original research of Savarkar is superb and the translator has been quite successful in plucking out the actual significance of the original Marathi book in English. If all the Christians read this book, instead of trying to convert Hindus into Christian sect, they would like to adopt their original Vedic Dharma. They would like to follow the great theology of Geeta, preached by Jesus. I have a strong belief that on reading this book the Hindus and Christians will develop brotherly and peaceful relations. If the Pope is lucky enough to this book, he would have to rethink over his statement made by him during his visit to India in 1999. The Pope boasted that in the first millennium Christians conquered the Europe, in the second millennium Christians conquered America and Africa, and in the third millennium Christians will conquer Asia. On that background Franchois Gautier wrote an article in the Indian Express dated 25 Oct.1999, showing how Hindu the Pope is. A Russian oriental researcher Mr. Sergei Alexeyev in his talk on Moscow radio said that Jesus Christ was a Hindu Sanyasin, an Indian Hermit. Jesus made an in depth study of Hindu texts during his visit to India. Christ toured to Delhi, Jaipur, Varanasi, Rishikesh. ( Ref. The Times of India 1-7-99). Dr. Notovitch had done a similar research in the past, studying for 25 years. Dr. Notovitch traveled in India. At the Buddha temple in Himmus, Tibet, he was shown an ancient book, which records the reports of Christ in India for 17 years. It included one short book written by Christ himself. Dr. Notovitch prepared three copies of that book and sent one to the Pope. However, the Pope burnt it and wrote him that he should not do such folly again. Even then, Dr.Notovitch published the book under title " The Unknown Life of Jesus". :boohoo: |

Re: Was Jesus Christ a Hindu?
Neet, I always thought that our Coronation of Mary was so similar to a picture I once saw of Krishna and Arguna (was it) in the "Golden Chariot."
But you can't blame the Pope for burning that book if it would scatter his flock, can you now? |

I suppose next we'll find it was Indians, not the Germans, that helped us get to the moon?
