CHRIST & CHRISTNA (KRISHNA)

Coincidence or not.. wonderful are the similarities between Christ & Krishna -
1. Jesus and Krishna were called both a God and the Son of God
2.Both were sent from heaven to earth in the form of a man
3.Both were called Savior, and the second in the Trinity.
4.His adoptive human father was a carpenter.
5.A spirit is their actual father.
6.Jesus & Krishna were of royal descent.
7.Both were visited at birth by wise men and shepherds, guided by a star.
8.Angels in both cases issued a warning that the local dictator planned to kill the baby and had issued a decree for his assassination. The parents fled. Mary and Joseph stayed in Muturea; Krishna's parents stayed in Mathura.
9.Both Jesus and Krishna withdrew to the wilderness as adults, and fasted.
10.Both were identified as "The seed of the woman bruising the serpent's head."
11.Jesus was called "the lion of the tribe of Judah." Krishna was called "the lion of the tribe of Saki."
12.Both claimed: "I am the Resurrection."
13.Both referred to themselves having existed before their birth on earth.
14.Both were "Without Sin."
15.Both were God-men: being considered both human and divine.
16.They were both considered omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent.
17.Both performed many miracles, including the healing of disease.
18.Both cast out indwelling demons, and raised the dead.
19.Both selected disciples to spread their teachings.
20.Both were meek, and merciful. Both were criticized for associating with sinners.
21.Both celebrated a last supper. Both forgave enemies.
22.Both descended into Hell, and were resurrected. Many people witnessed their ascensions into heaven.
23.Jesus is recorded as saying: "If you had faith as a mustard seed you would say to the mountain uproot yourself and be cast into the ocean". Krishna is reported as having uprooted a small mountain.
24.Krishna's foster-father Nanda had a journey to Mathura to pay his taxes just as Jesus' foster-father Joseph is recorded in the Gospel of Luke as having to go to Bethlehem to pay taxes.
25.Both were crucified. M. Guigniaut's Religion de l'Antiquité states: "The death of Crishna is very differently related. One remarkable and convincing tradition makes him perish on a tree, to which he was nailed by the stroke of an arrow." There are other references to Krishna being crucified, and being shown with holes in his feet, hands and side.
Coincidence or not !!! One for sure.. One great incident has happened in the past. Our people transformed, transferred & transcripted that over the years. And today we have different myths among us. But it could lead to ONE.
Anyhow, no matter its true or not.. One should believe God is one and have faith in him and follow his principles which leads only to Goodness !!
