A Msg to the Christians - Written by KA-Sebai-BA

Oneness – John 17:20
Truth is in You – Luke 17:20

Christ came to reveal the Father and to show us how to become one with the Father. This is the central theme of the One True Religion, becoming One with God! Now let's notice the following important concept, which is introduced in the Gospel of John.
Notice that there is no difference between truly knowing Christ and truly knowing God the Father.

Now follow the logic with me. If Christ, before he became human, was the Word, which was also God, then anyone before the birth of Christ that worshiped the One True God was in effect worshipping Christ.

I want to point out something that is very important as it applies to Hinduism. Part of the sacred scripture in Hinduism is called the Vedas. Please notice this ancient scripture from the Vedas.
These are the very words of Veda. Prajapatir vai idam asit: In the beginning was Brahman. Tasya vag dvitya asit; with whom was the Vak or the Word... Vag vai paramam Brahma; and the word is Brahman."

Vak or Word was understood by the ancient Hindus to be the Sound which brought all things into existence - the Sound or Word - the primordial emanation of God expressing and clothing the creative Thought. Astonishingly, we see a marked similarity between John's opening verses and that of the Vedas.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Between 500 to 100 B. C., the doctrines of Hinduism were given their most exalted form in the Upanishads, which gave rise to the Brahmanic religion. We find the oldest doctrine of the Trinity embedded in ancient Brahmanism - the triad of Brahma (Father), Vishnu (Word) and Shiva (Power). These correspond to the later Western Christian concept of Father, Son and Holy Spirit as taught by the Church Fathers.

In the Bhagavad Gita, circa 500 B. C. to 250 B. C., we find perhaps the earliest doctrine of the divine incarnation. In this text the figure of Krishna is considered to be an incarnation of Vishnu, the Son of God, the second Person of the Supreme Trinity. Krishna was the eighth incarnation of Vishnu and it was understood that the Word of God, Vishnu, would incarnate on earth a number of times in every age and epoch for the salvation of humanity

Remember Jesus said, "If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well." Remember the Vedic verse: Prajapatir vai idam asit: In the beginning was Brahman. Tasya vag dvitya asit; with whom was the Vak or the Word... Vag vai paramam Brahma; and the word is Brahman."
So if Brahman and the Word are equal, (Christ is one with the Father,) then when Buddha became one with Brahma (God the Father) he also became one with Christ!

The One True Religion is about our relationship with God and our Journey to join with God (Brahman). In Hinduism it's called Yoga, (Union with Brahma), In Buddhism it is called achieving Buddhahood or Nirvana (merging with the Infinite Bliss), and in Christianity it is called becoming One with the Father through Christ, (Being saved.)
