Roerich said that the Tibetan scroll he found indicated that Issa was 13
years old when he secretly left his father’s house left for India, and
Notovich records in his book that he was 14 when he went to India, as
does the Natha Namavali (or Sutra). He didn’t want to marry, which
pushed him into leaving home. He traveled east with a caravan of
merchants to Pakistan.
The apocryphal Gospel of the Hebrews (also known as the Gospel
According to the Hebrews) said that Jesus traveled to India by way of
Assyria and Chaldea with a group of merchants. His first stop was
Sindh, where the Indus River and its tributaries flow into the Arabian
Sea. He then went to Punjab and Rajputana, and then to Orissa. The
evidence suggested that Issa stayed at the Temple of Jagannath in
Puri for 6 years. He also visited Rajagriha, Varanasi (Benares) and
other holy cities.
Issa then left the temple so he could visit the birthplace of Buddha,
and lived in the Buddhist monastery there, where he was educated in
the teachings of Buddha.
Sakyamuni Buddha (563 - 483 BC) was a well-educated prince who
renounced his royalty (his father was the Chief of the Shakya Clain in
Kapilavastu, in Nepal), because of his disillusionment with the ravages
of illness and old age. At Gaya, while meditating under a Bodhi tree, he
had a vision, and became ‘enlightened.’ He taught about “non-
violence, peace, and compassion.” About 300 years later, Ashoka
Maurya (269-232 BC), emperor of northern India, converted to
Buddhism, and sent missionaries to many countries. In fact, it has
been suggested that the Pythagoreans in Greece, and Essene
community in Judea, was the result of missionary work by Buddhists.
The man known as Issa was considered to be the incarnate of the spirit
of Buddha, and was revered as a great prophet and teacher.
After 6 years in the foothills of the Himalayas in southern Nepal, he
was recognized as a Master, and “had become a perfect expositor of
the sacred writings.” He left, traveling westward. He passed through
Punjab, and met up with a caravan of merchants from Kashmir, and he
performed miracles among them, including the healing of the sick.
