How much contact did Jesus have with Buddhism early in his life? In this 1927 work, Dwight Goddard compares the lives and teachings of Christ and Gautama, the young Buddha, giving a context to the two religions and exploring their historical and theological intersections. Key to his investigation is a study of the Essenes, a semi-Buddhist Jewish sect that had a direct influence on both Jesus and John the Baptist. Also included is a fascinating psychological portrait of the historical Jesus sure to prove controversial to believers and nonbelievers alike. DWIGHT GODDARD (1861-1939), a pioneer in the American Zen Buddhist movement, authored and edited nine books on Buddhism, including The Buddhist Bible, known to have influenced the views of iconic Beat author Jack Kerouac.

A volume that proves that much of the New Testament is parable rather than history will shock many readers, but from the days of Origen and Clement of Alexandria to the days of Swedenborg the same thing has been affirmed. The proof that this parabolic writing has been derived from a previous religion will shock many more. The biographer of Christ has one sole duty, namely, to produce the actual historical Jesus. In the New Testament there are two Christ's, an Essene and an anti-Essene Christ, and all modern biographers who have sought to combine the two have failed necessarily. It is the contention of this work that Christ was an Essene monk; that Christianity was Essenism; and that Essenism was due, as Dean Mansel contended, to the Buddhist missionaries "who visited Egypt within two generations of the time of Alexander the Great."

THE BUDDHIST ESSENE GOSPEL OF JESUS Volume II The New Age Essene and Maha Bodhi Renaissance A THREE VOLUME EXEGESIS WITH SYRIAC ARAMAIC TRANSLATIONS UNFOLDING THE GOSPEL S MYSTERIES AND UNCOVERING THEIR TRUTH by Dr. Johnny Lovewisdom Special Appendix: Diet of the Essene Jesus and The Healing Transition Diet (amplified and revised edition) Now for the first time in the west, we have a facsimile reproduction of the Principal Mysteries just as they were thought out and recorded in the original wording. In this Second Volume of The Buddhist Essene Gospel of Jesus, Dr. Lovewisdom focuses on the importance Buddhism had in the creation of Primitive Chrisitianity. Quote from Volume II: India's claim as the teacher of the world is due to Buddha. Buddha was born in India and gained enlightenment on India soil. We in the west owe so much to Buddha according to Prof. D.C. Ahir. Universities as great centers of learning first came into existence during the golden age of Buddhism in India from the time of the Buddha (6th century b.c.) to the 7th century a.d., about 1200 years. Our concept of libraries was first developed in these prestigious Buddhist Universities. Democracy can be traced back to Buddhism and how the Sanghas or communities were governed by voting. Buddhist art at Ajanta inspired all of Asia. Indian scholars have pointed out that Patanjali s yoga sutras are really a Hindu version of Buddhist yoga and the Bhagavad Gita is claimed a post-Buddha scripture. Shankara s Vedanta system has been shown to be largely borrowed from Buddhism according to Dr. Das Gupta. The Buddha influenced India to become largely vegetarian after being a heavy beef-eating country. Your editor's conclusion is that given the same vicarious atonement animal sacrifices, slavery among men and intellectual authoritarian servitude to Brahmanism at the time of the Buddha, -the teachings of Jesus Christ would have converted the world to peace instead of war. BLOOD OF THE GRAPE SALVATION VERSUS SHEDDING HUMAN BLOOD To understand John, we must apply Gospel definitions, and in the beginning with him refers to what in Greek was translated as the Genesis, the first book of the Bible. So he proceeds to tell us of the Word or Wisdom of Life Everlasting, for God is Light, our true Enlightenment. Now in the 7th verse reveals: "If we live in the Light, as he is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sins." This affirmation of John proves that the common dogmatic assertion that Jesus shed his blood on the cross in payment for our sins is false theology, hiding the Essene teachings. The blood of lambs, oxen, doves and other animals, and not even the bloodshed of humans can give us life, nor Life Everlasting. Rather, as we have already explained, the blood of the Son of God is grape blood, and Genesis teaches that the Prophesied Savior will wash his bodily raiment or robe in the blood of the grape. SAINT FRANCIS VERSUS SAINT PAUL People who live many years without dead animal products become very sensitive to any violation of this purity just as St. Francis confesses in a sermon after a severe illness: "Dearly beloved! I have to confess to God and you that I have eaten cakes made with lard." "St. Francis' gift of sympathy seems to have been wider than St. Paul's, for we find no evidence in the great Apostle of a love for nature or for animals. Francis' love of creatures was not simply the offspring of a soft sentimental disposition. It arose from that deep and abiding sense of the presence of God. To him all are from one Father and all are real kin. Francis placed the chief hope of his redemption and the redress of a suffering humanity in the literal imitation of his Divine Master."

Does any one religion have all the answers? Or must we find the answers to life’s questions within ourselves? What would the Buddha think of Jesus’ message of unconditional love? Would the Buddha and Jesus have any common ground? In Jesus Meets the Buddha, author James Kim attempts to answer these questions and many more by exploring the histories and beliefs of two of the world’s major religions: Christianity and Buddhism. Driven by his own desire to answer questions such as “Who am I?” and “Why am I here?” Kim builds on the discourses of the world’s greatest thinkers to examine religions and philosophies, including Judaism, Hinduism, Confucianism, and even Voodoo. His conclusion is that every religion in existence today is a precious gem of human history and an irreplaceable facet of the giant mosaic that makes up our world. He argues that by combining Jesus’ teaching with the long-held ethical and religious traditions of the East, we can build a meaningful unity for humankind. Provocative and well-researched, Jesus Meets the Buddha is a must-read book for anyone interested in the world’s religions or who is looking for their own answers about their place in the universe.
