Query: Was Jesus God...
Kaivalya
Jnani:
Jesus was never God Almighty but a man god. And what differentiates God
Almighty from a man god.
God Almighty is one and only one. He never manifests as a human being. It
is a different matter that in Hinduism Lord Krishna has been considered an Avatar (God manifest in human
form). And presently people are awaiting the advent of Bhagwan Kalki... one with almost the same powers as
Lord Krishna and an Avatar of the modern era.
Who is a man god? A man god is one... a normal human being who has gained
enlightenment in his lifetime. And thereafter gained salvation (liberation from the cycle of birth and death)
forever!
Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed... all are
man gods. In the last about 150 years only two persons have gained enlightenment. They were Sri Ramakrishna
Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana. Both these enlightened Saints gave back to the community what they had
learnt on the path to God.
In Christianity... to treat Jesus as God is crime. Truthfully he is a son
of God as all human beings are. We are all beloved sons and daughters of God. There is no other relationship
that exists apart from this.
After gaining enlightenment... every true son of God gains entry into the
kingdom of God (aka Vaikunth in Hinduism). This is a point of no return. None can ever return from the
kingdom of God. Neither can one go to the kingdom of God in bodily form nor can one return from the kingdom
of God in bodily form.
Kingdom of God is the place where God Almighty resides. Apart from God
Almighty only enlightened souls can exist in the kingdom of God.
Those souls who have not yet gained enlightenment are either present on Mother Earth or in heaven (aka Swarga in
Hinduism) or hell (aka Naraka in Hinduism). Heaven and hell are the intermittent stages in the life of a soul where
it rests until it gets a body to manifest.
Jesus Christ prayed to God as a normal human being as we all do. To seek blessings of God
Almighty is a prerogative of all enlightened souls. We human beings at times are so engrossed in our day-to-day
affairs that we forget to say our prayers. But for enlightened souls keeping in touch with God Almighty all the
time is essential.
