Lesser-known facts about Christianity

The beliefs in Christianity today are what have been laid down by the Apostle Paul, who never met Jesus, but claimed that he received his teachings in a vision. But an impression was created by him and the Church later that what he preached was what was laid down by Jesus by showing that he and the apostles who had spent their life with Jesus preached together the same things. The book 'Discovering Jesus' reveals many unknown facts about Christianity. The book is a research paper based on the writings of the Christian theologians of the early centuries.

The book has been written by Harh Mahan Cairae, 1978 batch Assam-Meghalaya cadre IAS who retired as the Chief Vigilance Commissioner Assam. The book brings out evidence to show that Paul had been ex-communicated by the other apostles and fought a running battle with them all his life. The Church of the other apostles did not acknowledge Paul as an apostle, but considered him to be an apostate, it said. The book proceeds to present evidence to show how Paul and the Pauline Church created myths of Jesus's birth from a virgin, his rising from the dead and miracles performed by him, none of which were believed by the Church of the followers of the other apostles and how, after the death of the apostles, the beliefs laid down by Paul entered the Church of the real apostles and how they erased the belief system laid down by them by declaring them to be a heresy.

As per the book, this happened because the apostles did not write much and their teachings were recorded by their disciples. They were thus declared to be heresies propounded by them wherever they were in conflict with Paul, who had written extensively.  The book proceeds to search for the teachings of Jesus from the beliefs of the Christians who were declared heretics by the Pauline Church. As these beliefs emerge disjointedly from the writings of Christian theologians each element of them is compared with the Vedic beliefs and their close identity is brought out, according to Mr Cairae.

The book finally looks for the source of Vedic beliefs in Jesus's teachings and finds that these were the original beliefs of the Jews also. With this it proceeds to see whether the Jews were in any way related to the Aryans and concludes that it is incorrect to call them a Semetic race. They were Aryans and of the group that called itself Devs.

It took six long years to bring out the book 'Discovering Jesus'. Mr Cairae studied various research materials to bring out the hidden facts about Christianity.  “An Aryan Journey” was his first book which he had written in 2013. His both books are available in leading book stores, as well as Amazon and Flipkart etc.
