Wokkkkay! So, Jesus was finally buried in India….. hmmmm…. interesting…!!!! Definitely an interesting conspiracy theory!!!! I did some googling and found that this is really not a new theory. Looks like it’s been around for sometime now. Kind of adds a real twist to the Da Vinci Code story… doesnt it? 
[The first tones of Freedom] It aint very surprising. No matter what the current controversy might be, its a reality that Jesus wasent buried in Jerusalem as per the current media speculation, but almost thousands of kilometers away, into Gods own land – India into the most disputed and Pakistani terrorized region of today ie Kashmir.
Possible Grave of Jesus @ Srinagar, Kashmir, IndiaThe Russian scholar, Nicolai Notovich, was the first to suggest that Christ may have gone to India. In 1887, Notovich, a Russian scholar and Orientalist, arrived in Kashmir during one of several journeys to the Orient. At the Zoji-la pass Notovich was a guest in a Buddhist monastery, where a monk told him of the bhodisattva saint called “Issa”. Notovich was stunned by the remarkable parallels of Issa’s teachings and martyrdom with that of Christ’s life, teachings and crucifixion.
For about sixteen years, Christ travelled through Turkey, Persia, Western Europe and possibly England. He finally arrived with Mary to a place near Kashmir, where she died. After many years in Kashmir, teaching to an appreciative population, who venerated him as a great prophet, reformer and saint, he died and was buried in a tomb in Kashmir itself.
The first step in Christ’s trail after the Crucifixion is found in the Persian scholar F. Mohammed’s historical work “Jami-ut-tuwarik” which tells of Christ’s arrival in the kingdom of Nisibis, by royal invitation. (Nisibis is today known as Nusaybin in Turkey) . This is reiterated in the Imam Abu Jafar Muhammed’s “Tafsi-Ibn-i-Jamir at-tubri.” Kersten found that in both Turkey and Persia there are ancient stories of a saint called “Yuz Asaf” (”Leader of the Healed”), whose behaviour, miracles and teachings are remarkably similar to that of Christ.

By the way, I also ran across another theory that Jesus is buried in Japan. Not just Jesus, but his brother as well. There also seems to be a family – the Sawaguchi family who are the descendants of Jesus’s bloodline (Sounds familiar? Its much similar to the Saint-Claire family of Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code) 
.
When He was 21 years old, Jesus Christ (イエスキリスト) came to Japan and studied theology for 12 years. He came back to Judea at the age of 33 in order to preach, but people there rejected His teachings and arrested Him to crucify Him. However, it was His little brother Jsus Chri (イスキリ) who took His place and ended his life on the cross. Jesus Christ, having escaped crucifixion, resumed His travels and finally came back to Japan, where He settled in this village, Herai, and lived till the age of 106 (other versions mention the age of 118 and the name of His wife, Miyu). In this holy place, the tomb on the right is dedicated to Jesus Christ, while the tomb on the left commemorates His brother, Jsus Chri. All of this is written in Jesus Christ’s testament.
hmmmm….. What else is new? Already half the world is breaking up in the name of religion. Add one of the most disputed hot-spots in the history to this mixture and you have the perfect recipe for a global religious outburst and fights. Kashmir – The same “Paradise on earth” that terrorists want to snatch away from India in the name religion. Now, all we needed was another religion into the whole show! This is getting really interesting!!!
Interesting post. I read a book by Steven Collins called The Lost Ten Tribes Found. He made the case for Jesus traveling troughout the world with his uncle, a metals trader and member of the Sanhedrin. Collins also gives evidence of Jews in Britain, Parthia, and India. It is suspected that Jesus went their too when he was between twelve years and thirty years old.
Maybe thats true… but, somehow the idea that Jesus was actually buried in India kind of seems a bit too far fetched. The reason is that if that were the case, Christianity would have had a more prominent influence in India. India is today a Hindu country. India’s Indian name is “Hindustan”… Which means “The land of Hindus” (though some argue that it means the “The land of the Indus”… from the river Indus.)… I think India is the one single country which has the largest population of Hindus.
If the theory of Jesus in Kashmir is true, then I would have expected more presence of Christianity in Kashmir. But, I understand that the majority population in Kashmir is Islam.
woah !! that is a major twist in the tale… but i guess, no matter how much proof appears, is gonna be “kinda” tough to get the Vatican to agree.. change isnt their strong point after all.
Imagine what it would be like to have Vatican headquartered in Kashmir. That way, the American President will step in with their soldiers and shoo away the terrorists (his favorite War on Terror act!)….!!

Hi
Bye
i would like to know more about these facts would u plz guide me on this?
I understand that there was a Jewish bloodline in Kashmir, which died out in the 11/12th century.
I still dont understand how they were able to travel when his feet were impaled.
Very few people did actually die on the cross amd many monks did survive crucifixtion
There are sufficient evidences well documented to establish credence in the belief that Jesus lived beyond the crucifixion. Here are a few web links to review:

i totally agree with dis post
I have lived in srinagar for 12 years and once you co-relate all the facts on ground in becomes rather difficult to refute the fact that jesus did spend his later part of life in Kashmir. What, however, is shocking is the fact that a simple thing like the DNA testing has not been carried out till now. The administrators of the shrine are more than willing to co-operate in this matter.( I guess increased revenue from tourist might be a driving force).
Two points as food for thought:
1. There are no Christians in kashmir because Chritianity as we know it came in much after Christ and is a very distorted version of his teachings
2. The Vatican should be really interested in knowing if Jesus had something more to say to further enrich thier religion- that is if they want to.
Hmmmm. Hmmmm. Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
Okay, well, here we go. I’m an old timer, so excuse my lingo, please.
The cat’s crucified. Okay, some days later he’s walking around; meets his crew, called, “The Disciples” [also was/is a Chicago street gang].
They go, “Jesus?!” He go, “Sho nuf!” They go, “Naw!” He go, “Hey, it’s ME! Feel me.” They FEEL him. FEEL.
Then, the dude’s HUNGRY. So, they give him a “fish and a honeycomb.” And he EATS.
Now, the ***son of God***, after coming back a live, EATS. It looks like he was simply alive; like, he’d survived.
Where is he? I find the India story a happy one–if true. It’s happier than believing that some dude died for me, and I don’t even KNOW the cat.
True or not, I like the India story. It’s like a story of conquering, against all odds. Very attractive.
What I’m waiting for is a GOOD explanation of those foot carvings:
http://www.tombofjesus.com/2007/core/historical_sources/docs/feet_carvings.html
Now THAT’S damned interesting! Foot carvings in India? No big deal. But with WOUND marks?? What’s THAT all about! That carving is in stone, inside that tomb.
Who carved that? Wound marks in the feet. Maybe some hoax [?]
i m really thanksfull about getting information on jesus
I found this article to be very amusing. I had never heard of these theories. However, I must disagree with all of them.
John 19:41-42 says, “At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.”
Jesus was certainly crucified just outside of Jerusalem. John 19:17 says, “Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha).” And I hardly consider India or Japan to be “nearby” of Jerusalem. Therefore, these are interesting theories, but hardly factual. They are as fictional as the Da Vinci Code (which is why you find it in the fiction section at Barnes and Nobles…).
There are many evidences to show that Jesus went to India and even died there…all people who go out to find these evidences eventually become convinced of it. Only people who stay home and are too lazy to study anything themselves will never ever find the truth…The truth is out there for all to grab….If only you people knew what scholars are discovering about the historical Jesus, you would realise to what extent we can have false impressions by seeing what Christianity has become today…Visit my blog to find my own research:

Blasphemy! total blasphemy! I am very surprised at how you are treating this Jesus subject. If there is any doubt as to the deity and resurrection of Christ then why this sudden massive outcry? Perhaps maybe you are scared of the man’s prophecies that are coming to pass as recorded in the good book and are running helter skelter for shade. The records are there for all to see, Jesus died and rose from the dead. End of discussion. But you blasphemers be accursed of what you say of the Lord for your end is near. Repent and your sins shall be forgiven. REPENT, NOW! The end is near.
All evidence you use to support you claims are sixes and sevens and do not connect. Evidence form the bible however connects like a jig saw puzzle. The title Christ is not a given name it was conferred on to Jesus by God. Mary had sons but never has it been stated anywhere that one of them was also called Jesus. Please check your facts put them right and avoid the wrath of the LORD in the coming judgment you sons of the world.
When I Google up about Jesus in India a lot of results came up…this is a well-covered topic with lots of good books available.
The latest are written by the two experts in Kashmir, Fida Hassnain and Suzanne Olsson. I found them on amazon.com.
The most interesting part is about the DNA research they are doing. Can’t wait to find out what that proves!
Sooner or later the truth will come out. There is much evidence, even from the Bible itself, that point out that Jesus survived the crucifixion and fled. There is even further evidence from various sources that he was in India. That whole Japan story is just irrational and pure nonsense. The reason Christianity isn’t widespread in India is because the “Christianity” we know today was a manmade religion propagated by the Romans. In other words, Paul and his cohorts took Jesus’s story then molded it to what they saw fit and brought it to the West where it spread throughout the rest of the world. Everyone accepted Paul’s dogma as the truth. Meanwhile, Jesus’s real life’s story was hidden away in the East all this time.
If anyone wants to earn millions within a minute, write all false assume facts about Lord Jesus like pauper Dan Brown and claim yourself a writer/historian etc;etc;etc;

This is really an interesting topic!
If St. Thomas can travel to India, why can’t Jesus! If he rose from the dead, he probably never died on the cross. Maybe he just slipped into a coma…then regained consciousness..selected his key disciples and sent them in different directions….and himself went off to an unknown location (eastwards)!
The new testament, the vatican history have always been shrouded in mystery and secrecy. Disciples of Jesus started calling themselves the chosen student of his and preached their version of Christs teachings. They thus created different versions of christianity which seem to have had huge differences . The fact that Vasco da Gama destroyed Marthoma church records on arrival in Kerela, calling their version of christianity heretic speaks volumes of the difference in the way the teachings were delivered in different places.
Another fact is the surprising parallel between the teachings of Christ and hindu/ buddhist philosophy. Considering the fact that Buddha predates Jesus, it wouldn’t be far fetched to say that Jesus was actually influenced by buddhist philosophy either through travels or through readings.
There is a long history of Jews in India. In fact many scholars have calculated that Biblicaly and geographically it was India where Abraham and Sarah (Sarasvati) traveled from. The only difference is that in the Bible they were remembered as prophets, in India they were remembered as gods.
Many Pashtuns claim decent from Hebrew tribes and retain Hebrew customs. Many Kashmiris claim Hebrew decent.
I am equally interested in the grave of Jesus in Japan…This is the whole point to using scientific and DNA investigative tools instead of fairy tales and legends…without the science to back up the claims, we are all left with a big hole in our historical understanding of ourselves.
