Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Buddhism in Christendom: Or Jesus, the Essene It has been wisely said that, to understand any solitary religion, two, at least, must be studied. This seems essentially important when the religion is Eastern, and the student has been educated in the West. There is a tendency in the human mind to explain to itself that which is remote by that which is familiar. The Western mind is logical, matter-of-fact, impatient of symbolism. And yet Christianity is an Asiatic religion, and all Asiatics tell us that symbolism is the only language by which the facts of the spiritual world can be treated. Thus it has been shown by the Orientalist, Professor Wilson, that the three Avesthas of the Trinity (translated "hypostases" by the Gnostics) have come from India. Colebrooke has pointed out that the hymns of the Rig Veda, though avowedly addressed to many deities, are, "according to the most ancient annotations of the Indian scripture," resolvable into a triad, and, ultimately, "one God." It seems to result from this that the meaning of this triad may be more profitably sought in the ancient Indian books than in vaticinations of the blunt and literal monks that composed the Council of Nicœa. We interpret the great drama that began our era by our local experience. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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."

Download or read book The Influence of Buddhism on Primitive Christianity written by Arthur Lillie and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1893 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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."

Download or read book The Buddha's Gospel written by Lindsay Falvey and published by lindsay falvey. This book was released on 2002 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Described as ‘unique and a great service to understanding’, this book is intended for three groups; Western Buddhists, that bulk of the West that have no religious affiliation yet know there is something more to life, and Buddhists in Asia who follow the encounter of the dharma with the West. It highlights the pervasive similarities in the teachings of Jesus and the Buddha as they were probably originally presented. In its six chapters and appendix, it compares the two great teachers, the Buddha and Jesus, briefly charts the process by which experts have produced words readily attributed to Jesus and presents a Buddhist ‘imitation’ of these words based on the hypothetical ‘Sayings of Jesus’. It then considers congruence between the Buddha’s and Jesus’ teachings before offering both Buddhist and Christian interpretations. An appendix re-presents the Buddhist imitation of Jesus’ words as a continuous text. Dr. Falvey introduces his work ... ‘Jesus speaking the Buddha’s words’ exudes audacity and ignorance, yet this work essentially wrote itself as a product of my socialization, a modicum of Christian theological study and its explication through three decades of casual association with Thai Buddhism. Differences between the two traditions – such as Christianity relying on a God while Buddhism denies the existence of a God proved themselves facile upon consideration of the metaphorical intent of teachings of both traditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is possible to be a Christian Buddhist in the context of a universal belief that sits fairly lightly on both traditions. Ross Thompson takes especially seriously the aspects of each faith that seem incompatible with the other, no God and no soul in Buddhism, for example, and the need for grace and the historical atonement on the cross in Christianity. Buddhist Christianity can be no bland blend of the tamer aspects of both faiths, but must result from a wrestling of the seeming incompatibles, allowing each faith to shake the other to its very foundations. The author traces his personal journey through which his need for both faiths became painfully apparent. He explores the Buddha and Jesus through their teachings and the varied communities that flow from them, investigating their different understandings of suffering and wrong, self and liberation, meditation and prayer, cosmology and God or not? He concludes with a bold commitment to both faiths.

Download or read book The Noble Eightfold Path of Christ written by Thomas Ragland and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient Theravada Buddhist canonical suttas, the beloved Mahayana Buddhist sutras, and the Tao Te Ching have been lovingly mined for concepts and realizations. These ideas resonate with the heart of the teachings of Jesus the Nazarene as preserved in the Christian gospels. Presented in the arrangement and context of Buddha's Noble Eightfold Path, "the truths presented are timeless and universal as a complete religion in themselves," says the author. The author describes the book as serving as the message of Jesus to the world in the context of Christian of Eastern thought, and points out that it is not really a Christian work. This is foremost a Buddhist writing, devoted to the same Dharma that Buddha so loved and taught 2500 years ago. It is presented through the teachings of the One who is called the Christ in the Western world. Then again, this is not really a Buddhist work as the linkage the author has made between the concepts of Christ and Buddha create a synthesis that transcends Christianity and Buddhism. The heart of this Dharma cannot really be defined of confined by a system of thought. It lives on the immediacy of the expression of those who take it to heart.
