A Search for the Historical Jesus

by Professor Fida Hassnain

Professor Fida Hassnain is the master scholar whom all of today's researchers and writers turned to as their source of information about Jesus in India. In his book, he draws on his voluminous original research on the life of Jesus Christ in the East, which as Director of Archives for the Jammu and Kashmir states in the 1960s, he was in a unique position to do. He has made this subject his life work to help build a bridge of understanding between the world's great religions.
In A Search for the Historical Jesus you too can draw directly on the studies of the world's foremost researcher on the life of Jesus.

This compelling book presents irrefutable evidence that Jesus did indeed live in India, dying there in old age. The result of many years of investigative research, Jesus Lived in India takes the reader to all of the historical sites connected with Jesus in Palestine, the Middle East, Afghanistan and India. As well as revealing age-old links between the Israelites and the East, the evidence found by theologian Holger Kersten points to startling conclusions:

In his youth, Jesus followed the ancient Silk Route to India. While there, he studied Buddhism, adopting its tenets and becoming a spiritual master.
Jesus survived the crucifixion.
After the 'resurrection' Jesus returned to India to die in old age.
Jesus was buried in Srinagar, the capital of Kashmir, where he continues to be revered as a saint. The tomb of Jesus still exists there.

Christ in Kashmir

Good things come in small packages from far away. This jam-packed, 160-page book comes directly from the city that houses the Tomb of Jesus Christ: Srinagar, the capital of Kashmir.
The author, Aziz Kashmiri, is a lifelong resident-author-scholar of Srinagar who is intimately and masterfully knowledgeable of the history of Kashmir, including the history and traditions of Jesus in Kashmir. Aziz Kashmiri presents this work with raw vigor and honesty, proving that Jesus survived the crucifixion, travelled to Kashmir, and died there at a ripe old age.

For anyone wanting to know the real history of early Christianity, this book is both an essential and a "fun" read. First published in 1986 with the title "The Vegetarianism of Jesus Christ," this second edition has much additional material and substantial revisions which have made the book more interesting, more provocative, and more persuasive.
Vaclavik does not mince words or conclusions. The current so-called Christianity is at best a pale imitation of the real views of Jesus, and at worst an outright betrayal of its leader. Jesus was interested in promoting pacifism (nonviolence towards enemies), communalism (sharing of possessions), and vegetarianism (nonviolence towards animals).
Vaclavik's book is important and valuable: I have read his book and profited from it. Moreover, I believe that in his important conclusions, he is absolutely right: pacifism, communalism, and vegetarianism were important parts of the message of Jesus.

Khwaja Nazir Ahmad's book is one of the top two Jesus-in-India books of all time. It is a well-known classic. 471 pages; 86 illustrations; a bibliography of 513 books; linguistic charts; insightful appendices; a chronological survey of the research, and much more make this book a scholar's paradise. Yet it is wholly readable for the average lay person. Nazir Ahmad, a bona fide scholar, cannot be dismissed as a "New Age" dreamer. He was well versed in Asian and Indian languages, comparative religious studies, world history and linguistics, and was even nominated for the Nobel Prize.
First written in 1950 and republished in 1998, this book does much more than present the issue of Jesus in India as some quaint, off-beat topic. Thorough analyses of the important details of history, culture, religion, archaeology and linguistics, are all woven together as one of the most coherent and logical presentations of the subject to date. Nazir Ahmad made his case.

This book is already a classic after only a few years in print. Acharya S is a stinging writer, of great depth and passion, who has amassed a vast amount of material to advance her theory that Christianity and, indeed, the figure of "Jesus Christ" as generally portrayed, were created by a cabal of clandestine members of various secret societies, mystery schools and religions for the purpose of unifying the Roman Empire under one state religion.
Acharya postulates that "Jesus" was actually a composite character of popular dieties such as Mithras, Heracles/Hercules, Dionysos and many others who personified the ubiquitous solar myth. The story of Jesus, as portrayed in the Bible, is virtually identical in detail to that of earlier savior-gods, such as Krishna and Horus. Acharya S shows our Western Christianity to be a re-interpretation of ancient beliefs that were centered on the celestial bodies and natural forces.

Kersey Graves' 1875 classic, republished in 2001, has had an impact on many thousands of people over the generations. Amongst Western writers, the dogma-bound might well rank Godfrey Higgins (Anacalypsis) and Kersey Graves at the top of their list of heretics.

Graves believed that Jesus lived, but not as a divine being. Chapters such as, "How Men, Including Jesus Christ, Came To Be Worshipped As Gods," give the devastating details that expose the pre-Christian pagan origins of what is usually called "Christianity."

Graves produced page after page after page of astonishing correlations between the Jesus of Christianity and 16 pre-Christian figures, e.g., Sakia (India, 600 B.C.), Thammuz (Syria, 1160 B.C.) and Quexalcote (Mexico, 587 B.C.) He shows 346 striking analogies between Jesus Christ and Krishna. Chapter titles include: Rival Claims of the Saviors; Messianic Prophecies; Miraculous And Immaculate Conception of the Gods; Virgin Mothers and Virgin-Born Gods; The Twenty-Fifth Of December: The Birthday of the Gods; Titles of the Saviors; Resurrection of the Saviors; The Sacrament or Eucharist of Heathen Origin; Christianity Derived from Heathen and Oriental Systems.
