“When Jesus Lived in India…”
a big blank?
Now and then I’ll see a book that makes me stop and say What?~
I recently happened upon such a book. “When Jesus Lived in India - the Quest for the Aquarian Gospel: the Mystery of the Missing Years” (Watkins) by Alan Jacobs attempts to shed some light on the 18 year period in the life of Jesus (between ages 12 and 30) when there is a huge gap in the Biblical account. Where was Jesus during that period?
Was he in India? Tibet? Kashmir? What can we discover about those “missing years”?

Waiting for Vick to approve a comment can be a pain, but both local daily newspapers here in the Twin Cities run any comment without cussing instantly, and the comment threads are usually a cesspool of bile and calumny. Moderating comments is a necessary part of running a family friendly site.By edo

John Prine had this to say: “It was raining. It was cold West Bethlehem was no place for a twelve year old So he packed his bags and he headed out To find out what the world’s about He went to France. He went to Spain He found love. He found pain.”… the rest of the lyrics: http://www.musicsonglyrics.com/J/johnprinelyrics/johnprinejesusthemissingyearslyrics.htmBy Censorship
