Guest guest Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Dear Jagbir, i have a basic question to ask. i wonder if Jesus really died (completely dead) on the cross or whether He laid down His life in Samadhi, and took it up again, because He had the power to do so. After all, if anyone had this power, Jesus had this power over life and death. i have never ever understood the Christian concept of Shri Jesus having to be 'slaughtered like a sheep', in order for us to be able to ascend to the Kingdom of God. i believe that Shri Mataji said that it was not the killing of Jesus which horrible people did to Him, but the Work that Jesus Himself did in opening the Agnya Centre within Human Beings that paved the way for people to enter the Kingdom of Heaven within. However, i would like confirmation on this, if possible. In any case, Jesus was seen alive in his physical body after He was supposedly killed. Does that not prove that He actually did not die completely, but must have gone into some other Spiritual State....Samadhi perhaps? Also, in the Bible Jesus is purported to have said that 'i lay down my life and i have the power to take it up again'... Another question i have is, did Jesus ever say He had to die for forgiveness of sin, or did others say that about Him? Maybe, you can help me with these questions, Jagbir.
