With impetus provided by the accumulated historical and textual evidence supporting reincarnation this book first examines Gospel evidence that Jesus actually taught reincarnation and karma rather than resurrection. Deardorffs compelling analysis bolsters other studies indicating that the concept of resurrection displaced reincarnation in earliest Christianity due to its prebelief by certain Pharisee converts and specifies how the Gospels came to reflect this belief.Jesus in India reexamines the evidence that the lost years of Jesus youth were spent in the India. Deardorffs analysis brings out the plausibility of Jesus having gained knowledge about reincarnation and related spiritual matters under certain yogis in India.
