* Nikos Kazantzakis taught me to love your Christ , like no other I've read , for he taught me about Jesus the man and , not the demi God > The man was far greater , more real and believable . The rest of the stories they made up were uneccessary . Of course they misunderstood and persecuted poor Nikos Kazantzakis , who's writings of Jesus were of the most sacred and personal kind . Great author & human being... and lover of Christ.
Poor Christianity, sometimes so lost.
...but if he did die on that cross as millions of others did during those ruthless times , and died for the core beliefs of love and compassion , of course I would sing his praise and do often . That was a great noble death for truth.
That is where the word Christian was coined from. Those who saw the early apostles saw Christ in them. So they said "The Lord is There." From that we get Christianity, or "one with Christ". So, there is a big difference between Christianity and Buddhism.
The more you knew of Buddha , the more you would know Christ. For he was the Compassionate one . In this century the truth will win out ...little Buddha's truths are God's Truths....he was just too humble a teacher to go that far.
But you may call it God's truth if you wish !
the more you come to love him , the more you know him , the more you come to know him , the more you love him
little Buddhist saying ....
