The Lost Tomb 5 INTRODUCTION 6 Jesus in Kashmir My search for Jesus is not a religious quest, but a historical one that began in an old Victorian attic. The attic was rarely visited and never dusted or cleaned, an enchanted foreboding place filled with motionless, suspended air, cobwebs, mystery and memories. The attic had a distinctive odor of pine and cedar blended with the camphor mothballs scat- tered on bare wood floors. Dust shimmered in beams of sunlight struggling to shine through a window never meant to be opened or cleaned. Christmas tinsel and glitter sparkled from cracks in the floorboards. Old wooden trunks held vintage family Bibles, photos, wedding dresses, handmade laces and linens, army uniforms, military service Medals of Honor. Lifting the heavy lids was like a religious ritual performed to the sound of Grandmother’s deep sighs, not from the weight of the lids, but the weight of the memories stored in her heart. **** DESPOSYNI Whether searching for genealogy of Jesus, for my family, or yours, the methods of work and validation are the same. However, the genealogy of Jesus is more complicated. It begins The Lost Tomb 7 in the Old Testament, in the Book of Genesis from Adam and Eve to the Nephilim, to Noah’s birth, and then continues for thousands of years (some calculate between 4,000 and 10,000 years). The Bible is one amazing family’s unique historical and genealogy record. After thousands of years of carefully maintained records of Biblical “he begot, then he begot, then he begot…..” The trail suddenly stops at the birth of Jesus. No records were kept of his brothers and sisters, or of his children. Where are they? Where are their descendants today? Had the Romans or the Church not cared enough to continue the story? Or were facts so thoroughly blotted from history that not even one shred of verifiable evidence remains? Or had descendants never existed at all? Why did the gene pool leading to Jesus suddenly come to a dead end after thousands of years of preparation for his arrival? Jews still have to maintain careful family records because the next messiah must come from the Davidic lineage. **** 8 Jesus in Kashmir 1. GENESIS TO JESUS When we read the Bible, we are limited to just three conclu- sions. First, we may believe that this is about our ultimate faith in a Supreme Being, one who directly inspired an accurate telling of events. The world was created in six days; it was flooded, destroyed, and repopulated by the sons of Noah. Rods turned into snakes, waters parted, and spiritual angels descended to earth using methods that varied from flying chariots to moving stars, pillars of fire, talking clouds, and burning bushes. Every word of the Bible is literal and true. Second, we can believe that it is all myth. The Bible is a study of man’s imaginary efforts to control the world around him. It is more about man’s self-aggrandizement than about any possibility of a ‘real’ God interacting with mankind on a personal, one-on-one relationship. It was a Jewish myth brought from Babylon and Sumer, and picked up by the Greeks and Hindus in their mythologies, having no basis in The Lost Tomb 9 fact; thus, there was no creation. The world evolved in a sequence of random happenings explained through science. There is nothing supernatural about the universe. There was no sudden appearance of ‘Adam.’ There were no floods; no Ark; no Ten Commandments; no Noah or Moses; no rods caste before Pharaoh or parting of the seas; no Elohim or immacu- late conceptions; no ascensions on heavenly clouds; no angels and no miracles. There is no God. The Universe and all its contents were not created in six days, and as the great Lewis Black explains, “If anyone chal- lenges you on that, hold up a fossil and say, “Fossil.” Then throw it at them. That should keep them quiet”. Now that we have entered the Space Age, this adds a third possibility, one that we will return to often in this book. We are attempting to distinguish GOD from gods and aliens, to understand what the ancients experienced, and how they tried to convey those experiences to us. Hieroglyphs, petroglyphs, and ancient art suggest completely different interpretations about ‘ascensions’ and ‘flying chariots,’ genetic engineering, and DNA from the Elohim. El is “the God of gods” and eloah are the children of God. So let’s be clear about what we are worshipping. Is it “aliens”, or angels, or is there really a God beyond all these lesser deities? **** 10 Jesus in Kashmir 2. NOAH - AUSPICIOUS BIRTH S **** Jesus in Kashmir DNA DISPERSION DNA collects mutations over time which becomes historical information. By comparing DNA sequences, geneticists can infer the evolutionary history of organisms. Each variant is assigned a letter and number for identification, and these are called Haplogroups. This field of phylogenetics is a powerful tool in evolutionary biology. Population geneticists can learn the history of particular populations. This can be used in studies ranging from ecological genetics to anthropology. For example, DNA evidence is being used to identify the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. Some have been found among tribes in Afghanistan and India. The Viking DNA is predominated by the letter I, Polynesians by the letter B. From this we know that their great sea voyages were not connected by families or clans, and Polynesia was not settled by anyone related to Nordic Vikings. DNA of some Egyptian Pharaohs is more closely related to north Europe- an men, although we can’t explain how or why those pharaohs made the journey. We can look into the graves of Biblical patriarchs like Abraham and Sarah, and alleged graves and bone boxes for Jesus himself to know their true geographic origins. Distribution of Haplogroups goes approximately like this: For Europeans and Americans of European descent, over 95% can be classed into nine main clans: H, I, J, K, T, U, V, W and X.*** For Africans, the 14 main clans are L0a, L0d, L0f, L1b, L1c, L2a, L2c, L3b, L3d, L3e, L3f, L3h, L3i, L4, L5.*** For East Asia, there are eleven: Z, D, A, N, Y, F, R, B, C, E, G, M.*** For India and Pakistan, Central Asia or Eurasians, there are 3: M, R, and U.*** For South Asian, there are nine: M, N, X, R, J, H, T, U, F. ***For Oceana, there are five: N, M, P, B, Q. ***For Native Americas, there are five: A, B, C, D and X. {www.eupedia.com/europe/origins_haplogroups_europe.shtml} If you were to guess Jesus’ Haplogroup, what would your guess be? **** VIKINGS IN INDIA There are Celtic-Nordic links found in the graves from the Tarim Basin to southern India. Nordic-Hindu links have been noted by historians for years. DNA and blood typing confirms these migration routes. Swords formed from a specific smelting process used only by the Vikings, Laps Lazuli from Afghanistan, small-carved Buddhist 12 Jesus in Kashmir idols from Nepal, silk from China, sturdy and intricate weaves from Scotland and Ireland have all been found in Viking and Tocharian graves, attesting to their great travels. Through trial and error they defined and established the Old Silk Routes still in use today. Not only were they great travelers, they also left a permanent influence upon all cultures they encountered, and made valuable contributions with their skills, especially in metallurgy, and their adherence to organization through tribal laws. WERE HINDUS HEBREWS? The name ‘India’ does not appear in the Bible. Since Herodotus (5th century BC), the word denotes the region beyond the Indus River in Pakistan. It may be the Biblical land of Ophir 1 where Solomon established trade routes. It is also called Bharat. 2 The word India may have evolved from the Sanskrit word ‘Sindhu’ for the Indus River, from ‘sindhu’ to Hindu-stan (stan-place of). In ancient times, India was divided into smaller kingdoms like Kalinga, Magadha, Gandhar and so on. But most of these kingdoms followed the Aryan culture and Vedic rituals, religion, laws and customs. The Rig Veda was composed in the northwestern region of the Indian subcontinent between 1500–1100 BC, the early Vedic Period.3 No written records exist for the Greek tragedies, the Bible or the Rig Vedas before this time. They appeared almost simultaneously, and contained similar elements, belying their common origin. No The Lost Tomb 13 written records older than Sumerian have ever been discovered. The writing process first evolved from economic necessity in the ancient Near East. Around the 4th millennium BC, the complexity of trade and administration outgrew the power of memory, and writing became a more dependable method of retaining and passing on information. **** The earliest Hebrew Scriptures have been found on pottery shards written in the 10th Century BC, during the reign of King David.4 These contain lines of prayer similar in concept to the Vedic mantras and slokas5 (prayers).
