About the Book
Well advocated and well grounded, this little taut book permed by Karma Inana Vajra (Ramkrishna Das), the one and only Bengali Mahayani Yogi Monk in the entire Buddhist world, is an illuminating exploration into the little known phase of the life of Jesus Christ who in search of ultimate truth came close to Buddhism and did spend the rest of his life in India, the land of Buddha. However polemical this opinión may be, but the whole work bears no vestige of ill feeing towards Christianity, rather it is the veneration for Christ, the pathfinder, that drives him to shed light on the Indian-chapter of this perennial prophet. Significanly, the writer questions the myth that hails Christ as the major exponent of Mahayani teaching. Let there be light on Christ.
Preamble
Indeed, the appearance of every holy being, irrespective of a religion, takes place in order to accomplish some particular purposes. After appearance, the deeds they perform become precious and sometimes become incomparable too. Hardly ev- eryone can explain and interpret in a correct way how their deeds get executed in a smooth and non-obstructive way. Their birth and lifestyle, everything becomes ideal for the society. It is also right that due to misunderstanding their lifestyle is sometime disliked by a particular category of people. As a result, they become anti-category. It has happened with every holy being like Sakyamuni Buddha, Jesus Christ, Lord Krishna, Sai Baba and so on.

However, some Oriental erudite personalities of the past, especially in India, were not ready to accept 'belief without question. The spirit of our endevour here is to draw a conclusion.
