The people in India believe that Christ did go to
India. Before Christ started to teach there is a time in his life about which
nothing is known. So during this time he may have been in India.
India is a Hindu country. Christianity and Buddhism have
fewer followers, so maybe their teachings were connected, expressing them in
unity.
Both – Christ and Buddha – made honest efforts. It can
be said that their spiritual experiences are similar. This alone may be the
reason that their teachings are so similar. There is only one experience of
human´s true mind. This experience needs to be pure and bright. If there is
still anything to depend on left behind, then we need to dig even deeper. This
deep, pure experience can connect to all beings.
Please for yourself as well, take this deep experience
as most important.
