There is no direct mention of Jesus in the Vedas, which are ancient Indian scriptures. However, some believe that certain passages in the Vedas may have symbolic significance that could be interpreted as references to Jesus. This interpretation is not universally accepted among scholars.

There is not even a single verse in all the four vedas regarding jesus . May be the reason that vedas are not detailing about any person in general . The main theme of vedas is to enlighten the knowledge and display the rules of vedic dharma.

After the vedas comes the vedantas and puranas.

The Bhavisya Purana is one of the major 18 Puranas. It mainly deals with future events (bhaviysati).

The known best print of Bhavisya Purana was printed by

The Venkateswar Steam Press in Bombay in 1829 (and reprinted by Nag Publishers in 2003) is probably the most complete version available,

There is in one occasion ? the so-called meeting of Maharaja Salivahana and Jesus found written.

This is found in the 19th chapter of the Pratisarga-parva.

vikramaditya-pautrasca

pitr-rajyam grhitavan

jitva sakanduradharsams

cina-taittiridesajan

bahlikankamarupasca

romajankhurajanchhatan

tesam kosan-grhitva ca

danda-yogyanakarayat

sthapita tena maryada

mleccharyanam prthak-prthak

sindhusthanam iti jneyam

rastramaryasya cottamam

mlecchasthanam param sindhoh

krtam tena mahatmana

ekada tu sakadiso

himatungam samayayau

"Ruling over the Aryans was a king called Salivahana, the grandson of Vikramaditya, who occupied the throne of his father. He defeated the Sakas who were very difficult to subdue, the Cinas, the people from Tittiri, Bahlikas and the people of Kamarupa. He also defeated the people from Roma and the descendants of Khuru, who were deceitful and wicked. He punished them severely and took their wealth. Salivahana thus established the boundaries dividing the separate countries of the Mlecchas and the Aryans. In this way Sindusthan came to be known as the greatest country. That great personality appointed the abode of the Mlecchas beyond the Sindhu River and to the west. One time, that subduer of the Sakas went towards Himatunga (the Himalayas)." (19.19-22)

hunadesasya madhye vai

giristhan purusam subham

dadarsa balabanraja

gaurangam sveta-vastrakam

"In the middle of the Huna country (Hunadesa - the area near Manasa Sarovara or Kailasa mountain in Western Tibet), the powerful king saw an auspicious man who was living on a mountain. The man's complexion was golden and his clothes were white." (19:22)

It is said that After Salivahana defeated the Sakas in some war he established his empire,

from then the Salivahana period of Indian history began i.e SALIVAHANA SAKA, APPROX circa 78 CE.

According to this apparently section of the Bhavisya Purana, at some point after establishing his kingdom, Salivahana traveled to the Himalayas and met Jesus. some Christian scholars opine that Jesus was born in 4 BCE and was crucified somewhere between 27 and 36 CE. And if we believe the idea that Christ somehow survived the crucifixion and met Salivahana in the Himalayas, this would make him around 80 years old at that time. Yet surprisingly, the description of Jesus in the Bhavisya Purana does not mention that he was an old man.

The text continues with Salivahana asking Jesus, "Who are you?" to which Jesus replies:

isa-putram mam viddhi

kumari-garbha sambhavam

"I am the Son of God (isa-putra) and I am born of a virgin (kumari-garbha)."(19:23)idea

This is a common idea amongst Christians that Jesus Took birth from virgin and he claims that he is son of god.

As per the Old Testament in the Book of Isaiah:

"Behold, a virgin has conceived and bears a son and she will call his name Immanuel."

There is controversy but it depends on the reader to accept or not.

Does Jesus regret never writing anything down in his own words so that no one could make up their own things and claim that's what Jesus said or would have said?

A:Yes, it is true that the gospels were not really written by disciples or even close associates of the apostles, just as it is true that most of the New Testament epistles are pseudepigraphical. As you have remarked, it is true that these writings are not good sources for what Jesus said or did.The author of Luke 4:16-20 assumed that Jesus could read, when he has Jesus read from the Book of Isaiah in the synagogue at Nazareth, but John Dominic Crossan (The Birth of Christianity) disputes the historicity of that passage. For Crossan, Jesus could not even read or write, in which case he could never have written a true account.
