Greetings all!
I'm not sure where to put this, so Brian, please feel free to move it if you think it should go somewhere else.
I am reading the above book and am fascinated by the overlap of these documents with Buddhist thought. Frankly, it all sounds very Eastern to me. I know that there are some who believe Jesus was influenced by the East, and that still others think he might have spent his remaining days in India. (See http://www.tombofjesus.com/home.htm. Fun site, even if its not true.) I love the idea of these two religions being much closer than they appear.
Has anyone else read this book? What did you think of it? What is your take on the Nag Hammadi documents?
With metta,
Zenda
