Jesus and Paul mystics Essenes.

[Guest guest]

Namaste All,

 

It is believed that Paul also was an Essene and spent

two years or more in study at Damascus, the code name

for the Essene village at Qumran.John the Baptist was

rather obvious, don't you think?

 

With regard to Jesus being associated or raised by the

Essenes there is a lot of information pointing to

that.

My sources indicate that Jesus left Palestine, at age

thirteen, and travelled to India, Tibet, Persia,

Greece and finally Egypt, where he took his final vows

in the great pyramid, John the Baptist was also there.

 

In India he visited with the Jains in their caves, he

visited a group associated in someway with the Essenes

in Jaganath. He spent time in Kasi and eventually went

to Buddhistt Ladakh/Tibet, where he spent some years

in a monastery and practised Raja Yoga.

 

In the monastery at Himis in Leh there were kept on

palm leaves the records of St Isa's life, the Eastern

name for Jesus. These were initially brought to light

by a Russian, Notavich. They are also confirmed by

Swami Abhedananda of 'The Divine Life Mission', whose

master also saw and read those leaves and wrote about

them.

 

One must remember before this time that Ashoka's

missionaries were present throughout the middle-east.

If one reads Josephus the historian, he mentions Jesus

and also he talks about the Essenes, so does Pliny.

 

The Catholic Encyclopedia states, " The Dead Sea

Scrolls, however show grounds for suspecting

considerable influence, which does nothing to destroy

the originality of Christianity."

 

Essenes and Christians held similar attitudes to

communal living, the sacramental aspect of baptism,

prophecy, reincarnation, healing etc etc. They both

revered the 'Book of Enoch', and the 'Book of the

secrets of Enoch', later banned by the Nicean and type

councils that established 'modern purgated

Christianity'.

They had the same greeting, " Peace be with you", and

both were opposed to taking oaths. The Essenic meal

was 'bread and must', must is non-alcoholic wine,

which was their brotherly meal, or Christian Agape

(now the Mass).

 

The Qumran writings of the Essenes heavily influence

the New Testament it seems.

 

The Essene Temple was at Mt. Carmel, Qumran was a

secondary site, code-named Damascus, as in Paul/Saul

on the road to Damascus, as I mentioned already.

 

Prefix to the Carmelite Constitution in Rome 1281.

A.D.

" From the time when the prophets Elias and Eliseus

dwelt devoutly on Mt Carmel, holy fathers both of the

new and old testaments….lived praiseworthy lives by

the fountain of Elias in a holy succession

uninterruptedly maintained."

 

It is believed that after Jesus' resurrection, he

returned to Kashmir, and perhaps even visited Malaysia

also. It is said he lived until his nineties and is

buried in the 'Rozabal Tomb', in Srinagar. One family

has tended this tomb for generations, the ' Tomb of

the Prophet', it has stone feet outside with

nail-holes in!

 

This in no way takes anything away from the

resurrection and ascension etc. He was a Jivanmukta!

 

Love Om Namah Sivaya, Tony.

 

Ramana said even the stones we sit on are conscious.

All is one how can it be any other way?
