Product Description
A seeker’s quest across 4000 miles of India in search of answers about where Jesus was during the “Hidden Years” from ages 12 to 30. The New Testament is silent on those years, however in India there is an ancient tradition that young Jesus joined a caravan and took the Silk Road to the East, where He lived with both Hindus and Buddhists before returning to begin His ministry. Scholars and religious authorities are joined in this film by the Dalai Lama and an Apostolic Nuncio of Pope John Paul II.

The adventure of a life time!,

By A. Khan (New Malden, Surrey United Kingdom) -

This is a must see for anyone interested in the historical Jesus. The idea at first seems far fetched - Jesus in India? Yet, as we look in to the legends and traditions we find out that it is accepted by most people, including the Catholic Church, that one of Jesus’ disciples - Thomas - founded a Church in India - so could Jesus have gone there?

The documentary leaves no stone unturned. The film makers talk to Catholic professors, Biblical scholar Elaine Pagels, the esteemed Hindu leader the Shankaracharya of Puri, a Muslim scholar, the Dali Lama. One of the most colourful characters is Corrado Balducci from the Vatican who flatly denies all the claims about Jesus in India and claims they are fabrications. A very interesting section of the film contrasts his comments with the Shankarcharya who insists Jesus was India during his youth.

The film is a visual and audio treat - the rich colours of India combined with a wonderful musical soundtrack - so rich that its been released as a 40+ track CD.

The DVD comes with a ton of bonus material - which allows viewer to dig deeper in to some of the questions and issues surrounding this material. One interesting inclusion in the bonus feature is the Q&A session that took place after a screening of the film with questions from the audience put to a panel of those involved in the film.

A wonderful adventure and a thought provoking journey - get your copy ASAP!

Interesting and Unbiased,

By The Bodhiman “The Bodhiman” (USA) -

Although a familiar assertion and the subject of a number of books, never has the question been more thoroghly and without bias been reported on before, at least not to my knowledge. If you are at all interested in the facts about the possibility of Jesus having been in India learning about Buddhism and other insights to life, this DVD does a more than admirable job in presenting the facts in both an enjoyable and informative way. I’m a teacher of Buddhism and I am showing it to my classes of students, who are Christians, Jews and Muslims. I recommend Jesus in India.

This is a fascinating DVD for both religious and non-religious viewers,

By Anne Strieber -

We interviewed this filmmaker about “Jesus in India” on our internet radio show and it was listened to by people with a wide range of religious beliefs and they all found it fascinating. It doesn’t TELL you what to think, it just offers information so that YOU can make up your own mind. I think that only the most close-minded people would reject it (and I wonder if they really saw it or just object to the title?)–Anne Strieber, [...]
