SWAMI ABHEDANANDA AND JESUS CHRIST


Swami Abhedananda was a direct disciple of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa and brother-disciple of Swami Vivekananda.

In Hemis Monastery, he discovered a manuscript on the unknown life of Jesus Christ, which has been incorporated in the book Swami Abhedananda's Journey Into Kashmir & Tibet published by the Ramakrishna Vedanta Math, Kolkata.


The monks there not only assured them that Notovitch had spent some time in the monastery as he claimed, they also showed them the manuscript-part of which they translated for Swami Abhedananda, who knew from having read Notovitch's book that it was indeed the same writing found in The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ. Subsequently, Abhedananda had the English translation of Notovitch's text printed in India where the Christian authorities had until then prohibited both its publication or its importation and sale.
