Comment

Neither orthodox Muslims nor orthodox Christians are comfortable with the idea that Jesus may have gone to India as a young man to learn and teach Buddhism.

We present this material on Notovitch not necessarily to support the idea that Jesus may have gone to India to learn Buddhism, but to show that there is strong evidence, including Notovitch's findings, that Jesus did, indeed, live and die in India.
