More DescriptionThe Lost Sutras of Jesus is a fascinating historical journey and spiritual quest into the heart of Jesus’ teachings and the essence of Eastern religion. The story of the "Jesus Sutras” begins around A.D. 640, when a band of Christian missionaries entered China from the east. The message they brought was translated into a series of tales about Jesus, describing his teachings with a Taoist and Buddhist overlay. These sutras were eventually sealed in a cave around A.D. 1005, where they remained hidden until being unearthed by explorers in 1907. The Lost Sutras of Jesus combines the amazing story of the writing, disappearance, and rediscovery of the sutras with an exploration of their message. Photos and maps are included.
