Guest guest Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Taken from: http://www.beliefnet.com/story/97/story_9719_1.html Christ the Yogi Meanwhile, congregants at the San Francisco Vedanta Society, where the original Christ the Yogi hangs, revere Jesus as a "great Yogin" with highly developed "psychic powers." These congregants trace their lineage back to Ramakrishna, an Indian mystic from West Bengal, who was graced with a vision of Jesus while meditating on the Madonna and Child in 1874. Soon his disciples were also cultivating the "Jesus state." Shortly after Ramakrishna's death in 1886, twelve of his followers gathered on Christmas Eve to discuss Jesus, his life of renunciation, and his realization of God-consciousness. Their leader, Swami Vivekananda, spoke of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection..... With best wishes for Christmas and New year Vivekananda Centre London http://www.vivekananda.co.uk/photos.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
