The Near Death Experience (NDE) of Jesus, Surviving the Cross, Leaving for India after Surviving the Crucifixion and remaining there the rest of his life. Could this be the real truth? Videos at bottom of page.


This narrative is an interesting alternative take on the story of Jesus, one that merges elements of both historical speculation and popular theories, particularly those related to the so-called "lost years" of Jesus or the idea that he survived the crucifixion. There are many interpretations of Jesus’ life that differ from traditional Christian doctrine, and this version incorporates ideas from a variety of sources and traditions. Let’s break down some of the key points.

1. Jesus Surviving the Crucifixion

In traditional Christian theology, Jesus is believed to have died on the cross and was resurrected on the third day. However, there are some theories, especially from non-Christian and alternative viewpoints, that suggest Jesus may have survived the crucifixion. This would have been a miraculous event in itself, given the severity of Roman crucifixion methods. Some versions suggest that Jesus was taken down before his death was fully confirmed and later revived, possibly with the help of a healer. This idea is often part of the “swoon theory,” which proposes that Jesus didn’t die on the cross but instead fell unconscious and later recovered.

2. The Holiday and the Cross

You mentioned that the cross was emptied due to a holiday, which is an interesting detail. In the New Testament, it is mentioned that the crucifixion occurred just before the Jewish Passover. Roman soldiers were known to be pragmatic, and in some cases, they may have hastened death through methods like breaking the legs of the crucified person, but in this version, there seems to be a specific cultural or religious law preventing bodies from remaining on the crosses during the holiday.

3. Jesus’ Body Taken to the Tomb

The idea that Jesus’ body was taken to the tomb by two men, one of whom was a healer, aligns with some of the biblical accounts, where Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus are said to have prepared Jesus' body for burial. However, in this version, there’s a suggestion that a healer may have been involved in the revival process, which plays into the theory that Jesus survived the crucifixion.

4. Jesus’ Near Death Experience (NDE)

The concept of a Near Death Experience (NDE) has been reported by many individuals who have come close to death but survived. NDEs often involve feelings of peace, encountering a light, or meeting divine beings. Some people believe that Jesus' crucifixion, with its extreme physical trauma, may have led to an NDE, which could have influenced his teachings and spiritual views.

5. The “Lost Years” of Jesus in India

The theory that Jesus traveled to India during the so-called “lost years” — the period between his childhood and his public ministry — is another alternative view popularized by some authors and researchers. This theory says that Jesus might have studied Eastern religions and healing practices in places like Kashmir or Tibet, where there were ancient Buddhist and Hindu traditions. Some claim that the teachings of Jesus resemble those of Eastern philosophies, leading to the speculation that he may have been influenced by or even lived among people in the East.

6. Jesus’ Final Years in India

The idea that Jesus lived out his later years in Kashmir or northern India is mainly based on legends and some speculative historical accounts, though no direct evidence exists to support it. Some proponents of this theory argue that Jesus lived out his life in India after surviving the crucifixion, and that he died in a remote region, away from the Roman authorities. This theory also suggests that Jesus’ teachings in India may have influenced various Eastern spiritual movements.

Conclusion

While these ideas aren’t widely accepted in mainstream Christianity, they offer an intriguing alternative history of Jesus, one that blends mysticism, healing practices, and Eastern spiritual traditions. There’s a deep curiosity about the “missing” years of Jesus’ life, and theories like these challenge traditional narratives, suggesting a more complex journey for one of history’s most influential figures.

How do you personally feel about these alternative theories? Do you find them compelling, or do you think they take too much liberty with historical evidence?  There are videos on YouTube that say that there are ancient writings about Jesus in Hindu historical records in certain temples.


Is Jesus Really Buried in India?


The idea that Jesus Christ might have traveled to Kashmir and was buried there is part of a theory proposed by some historians, religious scholars, and theorists. This theory, often referred to as the "Jesus in Kashmir" theory, suggests that Jesus survived the crucifixion and later traveled to India, where he lived out the remainder of his life before dying and being buried in the region.

Here’s a brief overview of the theory and some of its key elements:

1. The Theory of Jesus Surviving the Crucifixion:

  • According to this theory, Jesus did not actually die on the cross, but instead, he was taken down while still alive and later revived. This is in contrast to the traditional Christian belief that Jesus died and was resurrected.
  • Some proponents argue that Jesus, after surviving the crucifixion, fled to the East, possibly to escape persecution or to continue spreading his teachings.

2. Journey to Kashmir:

  • Kashmir, a region in northern India, has long been a subject of speculation in this regard. Some claim that Jesus traveled to Kashmir during his "lost years" (the period of his life not covered in the New Testament, from the ages of 12 to 30).
  • Supporters of the theory argue that Jesus could have spent time in India, studying Eastern philosophies and religious traditions, which they believe could explain some of his teachings that resemble aspects of Buddhism or Hinduism.

3. The Tomb of Jesus in Srinagar:

  • One of the most famous aspects of this theory is the Roza Bal shrine in Srinagar, Kashmir, which some claim is the tomb of Jesus.
  • The shrine is dedicated to a man known as Yuz Asaf, a name that some believe to be another name for Jesus. According to local legends, Yuz Asaf was a prophet who came from the West and preached in Kashmir before dying and being buried there.
  • The Roza Bal shrine is an important pilgrimage site for some, and there have been claims that historical evidence and local folklore support the idea that this tomb belongs to Jesus.

4. Evidence and Criticism:

  • Proponents: Those who support this theory point to similarities between the teachings of Jesus and Eastern religions, suggesting that his influence in the region could be evidence of his time spent in India. They also highlight the presence of the Roza Bal shrine and various texts and oral traditions in Kashmir that mention Yuz Asaf.
  • Critics: The mainstream Christian tradition strongly rejects the idea of Jesus traveling to India or surviving the crucifixion. They argue that there is no concrete historical evidence to support these claims and that the theory relies on misinterpretations or fabrications. Additionally, many scholars assert that the idea of Jesus surviving the crucifixion is incompatible with core Christian doctrine.

5. The "Lost Years" and Eastern Influences:

  • Many aspects of this theory align with ideas about Jesus' "lost years" (the period between his childhood and the beginning of his ministry) when there is little information about where he was or what he did.
  • Some proponents argue that Jesus’ teachings of love, peace, and non-violence share common themes with Buddhism, Hinduism, and other Eastern religions, suggesting that he may have been influenced by these traditions during his time in the East.

6. Cultural and Religious Context:

  • Kashmir, in the 1st century CE, was a region known for its rich spiritual traditions, including both Buddhism and Hinduism. The region was also a major cultural crossroads between Central Asia, Persia, and India, so it’s plausible that religious figures from various traditions might have crossed paths there.

7. Notable Figures and Texts:

  • Nicholas Notovitch, a Russian traveler, popularized this idea in the late 19th century with his book The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ in which he claimed to have discovered Tibetan manuscripts stating that Jesus had traveled to India during his lost years.
  • Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, also supported the theory that Jesus survived the crucifixion and lived in Kashmir, where he died.

Conclusion:

While this theory has its share of supporters and has generated considerable interest in both religious and secular circles, there is no solid historical or archaeological evidence to conclusively prove that Jesus was buried in Kashmir. The mainstream Christian view holds that Jesus was crucified, died, and was buried in Jerusalem, with his resurrection being central to Christian theology
