The christian god Jesus Christ is almost a carbon copy clone of the hindu god Krishna which existed 900 to 1200 years before Jesus Christ.

The christian god Jesus Christ is also a carbon copy clone of the god Buddha which existed almost 700 years before Jesus Christ was invented.

Buddha

The ninth incantation of Vishnu was Buddha. The word Buddha, like the word Christ, is not a name, but a title. It means "the enlightened one. The name of this religious founder was Siddhartha Gautama He was born about 643 B.C, and died 563 s.c His mother, Mahamayai was a virgin. Dean Milman, in his History of Christianity, says: "Buddha, according to a tradition known in the West, was born of a virgin" (VoL I, p. 99, note). Devaki, Mary and Mahamaya, all gave birth to their children among strangers. Krishna was born in a prison, Christ in a stable, and Buddha in a garden. Werner's Encyclopedia, in its article on Buddha, speaks of "the marvelous stories which gathered round the belief in his voluntary incarnation, the miracles at his birth, the prophecies of the aged saint at his formal presentation to his father, and how nature altered her course to keep a shadow over his cradle, whilst the sages from afar came and worshiped him."

The "Tripitaka," the principal Bible of the Buddhism, containing the history and teachings of Buddha, is a collection of books written in the centuries immediately following Buddha The canon was finally determinedly at the Council of Pataliputra, held under the auspices of the Emperor Asoka the Great, 244 BC, more than 600 years before He Christian canon was established, The "Lalita Costars," the sacred book of the Northern Buddhists, was written long before the Christian era

Buddha was "about 30 years old" when he began his ministry. He fasted "seven times seven nights and days." He had a "band of disciples. who accompanied him He traveled from place to place and "preached to large multitude ." Bishop Bigandet calls his first sermon the "Ser- mon on the Mount" At his Renunciation "he forsook father and mother, wife and child." His mission was "to establish the kingdom of righ- teousness." "Buddha," says Max Mueller, "promised salvation to all; and he commanded his disciples to preach his doctrine in an places and to all men ""Self-conquest and universal charity" are the fundamental principles of his religion. He enjoined humanity, and commanded his followers to conceal their charities. "Return good for evils "overcome anger with love";"love your enemies," were some of his precepts.

Buddha formulated the following commandments. Not to kill; not to steal; not to lie, not to commit adultery, not to use strong drink.' Christ said. "Thou knowest the commandments, do not commit adultery, do not kill; do not steal; do not bear false witness; honor thy father and thy mother" (Luke xvui, 20). Christ ignored the Decalogue of Moses and, like Buddha, presented a pentade which, with the exception of one commandment, is the same as that of Buddha

Prof. Seydel of the University of Leipsig, points out fifty analogies between Christianity and Buddhism Dr. Schneider calls attention to over ode hundred Baron Hiarden-Hiclcey says: "Countless analogies exist between the Buddhistic and Christian legends--analogies so striking that they forcibly prove to an impartial mind that a common orign must necessarily be given to the teaching of Sakay-Muni and those of Jesus."

Concerning the biographical accounts of the two religious teachers Harden-Hickey says: "One account must necessarily be a copy of the other, and since the Buddhist biographer, living long before the birth of Christ, could not have borrowed from the Christian one, the plain inference is that the early creed-mongers of Alexandria were guilty of an act of plagiarism.. The following are some of the parallels presented by this writer

Both have genealogies tracing their descent from ancestral kings.

Both were born of virgin mothers.

The conception of each was announced by a divine messenger.

The hymns uttered at the two annunciations resemble each other.

Both were visited by wise men who brought them gifts.

Both were presented in the temple.

The aged Simeon of the one account corresponds to the aged Asita of the other.

As "the child (Jesw) grew and waxed strong in spins," so "the child (Sakay-Muni) waxed and increased in strength."

Both in childhood discoursed before teachers.

Both fasted in the wilderness.

Both were tempted.

Angels or devatas ministered to each.

Buddha bathed in the NarajanL and Christ was baptized in the Jordan.

The mission of each was proclaimed by a voice from Heaven. Both performed miracles. Both sent out disciples to propagate their faiths.

In calling their disciples the command of each was, "Follow me." Buddha preached on the Holy Hill, and Christ delivered his sermon on the Mount.

The phraseology of the sermons of Buddha and the sermon ascribed to Christ is, in many instances, the same.

Both Buddha sod Christ compare themselves to husbandmen sowing seed.

The story of the prodigal son is found in both Sciptures.

The account of the man born blind is common to both

In both the mustard seed is used as a simile for littleness.

Christ speaks of "a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand"; Buddha says, Perishable is the city built of sand."

Both speak of The rain which falls on the just and on the unjust."

The story of the ruler, Nicodemus, who came to Jesus by night, has its parallel in the story of the rich man who came to Buddha by night.

A converted courtesan, Magdalena, followed Jesus, and a converted courtesan, Ambapali, followed Buddha

There is a legend of a traitor connected with each.

Both made triumphal entries, Christ into Jerusalem, and Buddha into Rajagriba.

Both proclaimed kingdoms not of this world.

The eternal life promised by Christ corresponds to the eternal peace, Nirvana, promised by Buddha

Both religions recognize a trinity.

"Catholic and Protestant missionaries," to quote Max Mueller again, "vie with each other in their praises of Buddha. Bishop Bigandet, one of the leading Christian writers on Buddha, says: "In reading the particulars of the life of Buddha it is impossible not to feel reminded of many circumstances relating to our Savior's life'as sketched by the evangelists. It may be said in favor of Buddhism that no philosophic- religious system has ever upheld to an equal degree the notions of a savior and deliverer, and the necessity of his mission for procuring the salvation of man." St. Hilaire says: "He [Buddha] requires humility, disregard of worldly wealth, patience and resignation in adversity, love to enemies . . . non-resistance to eviL confession of sins and conversion." The bishop of Ramatha says: There are many moral precepts equally commanded and enforced in common by both creeds. It will not be rash to assert that most of the moral truths prescribed in the gospel are to be met with in the Buddhistic scriptures." Writing of Buddhisim Mrs. Spier, in her Life in Ancient India, says: "Before God planted Christianity upon earth, he took a branch front a luxonant tree, and threw it down to India"

The external forms of Christianity, especially of Catholic Christianity, are modeled in a large degree after those of Buddhism. Of Northern Buddhism (Lamaism) the Encyclopedia Britannica says:"Lamaisnu with its shaven priests, its bells and rosaries, its images and holy water, its popes and bishops, its abbots and monks of many grades, its processions and feast days, its confessional and purgatory, and its worship of the double Virgin, so strongly resembles Romanism that the first Catholic missionaries thought it must be an imitation by the devil of the religion of Christ] The central object in every Buddhist temple is an image of Buddha The central object in every Catholic church is an image of Christ Holy relics and the veneration of saints are prominent in both.

Buddha commanded his disciples to Bleach his gospel to all men. Christ commanded his disciples to do the same. In obedience to these commands the world was filled with missionaries, and largely as the result of this the adherents of these religious systems outnumber those of all others combined. Christian tradition says that Thomas visited India. Some believe that it was in this way that the early Christians became acquainted with the history and teachings of Krishna and Buddha This may be true, but so far as the Buddhistic element in Cbristianty is concerned it is quite as reasonable to suppose that Buddhist missionaries had previously carried their religion to Alexandria and Rome, where the molders of the Austrian creed obtained their knowledge of it. That remarkable missionary movement, beginning 300 B.C," says Max Mueller, Sent forth a succession of devoted men who spent their lives in spreading the faith of Budha over all parts of Asia. Harden-Hickey says "it is not doubted at the present day that Indian religious ideas, and indeed more particularly those of Buddhism, reached and were even propagated as far as Egypt, Asia Minor, and Palestine, long before the Christian era..

Connected with the triumphs of these religious faiths there is a historical analogy deserving mention. Three centuries after the time of. Buddha, Asoka the Great, emperor of India, became a convert to the Buddhist faith, made it the state religion of the empire, and did more then any other man to secure its supremacy in the East. Three centuries after Christ, Constantine the Great, emperor of Rome, became a convert to the Christian faith, made it the state religion of his empire, and won for it the supremacy of the West.

Remuset says: "Buddhism has been called the Christianity of the East." It would be more appropriate to call Christianity the Buddhism of the West. Buddha, and not Christ, was "The Light of Asia" At this torch Christians lighted their taper and called it "The Light of the World."

This is from the book "THE CHRIST" by John Remsberg. The book is great. It shows how Christ is just a copy cat god of KRISHNA, BUDDA, and many other gods that existed thousands of years before Christ, and even a few copy cat gods that were invented AFTER Christ.

I scanned this into my pc and tried to fix all the scanning errors. Any errors in grammer and spelling are probably from my scanner.
