The Bible was a collection of books and writings from several different traditions in the area, over some millenia. Jesus can only be judged from his 'Sayings'not from any religions based on his name. In the end result only a Mukta can recognise a Mukta but many Indian Saints regarded Jesus as so. I am working on this right now and have been for some time. http://www.geocities.com/aoclery/Jesusbook/ You will find the Gospel of Thomas quite non dualistic. This quote below could no doubt be checked out, for it is rumoured Jesus/Isa was in India. " Finally, there is a confirmation of the accuracy of the Hemis Scriptures about Issa from another part of India al-together, and from a Hindu rather than a Buddhist source. It will be recalled that these scriptures said Issa spent six years in Jagannath (now Puri) and other holy cities of the Hindus, before going to live for a further six years in the Himalayas. Sri Daya Mata, president of Self- Realization Fellowship, went to India in 1959, and in an interview with one of India's great spiritual leaders, His Holiness Sri Bharati Krishna Tirtha, the Shankaracharya of Puri, she mentioned that she had been told that Jesus " spent some of his life in India, in association with her illumined sages. His Holiness replied, 'That is true. I have studied ancient records in the Puri Jagannath Temple archives confirming those facts. He was known as " Isha, " and during part of his time in India he stayed in the Jagannath Temple. When he returned to his part of the world, he expounded the teachings that are known today as Christianity' " [20]. . . [Excerpts from Mason's book, In Search of the Living God, Chapter 4.
