Did Jesus visit Buddha's place

Answer 1

Most likely not. The journey would have been far and riddled with dangers.

This also did not follow with his personality and the general popular customs of the time. Unless he was a traveling mechant or had financial endevors, he had very little reason to make such a dangerous journey. Answer: The Christian Jesus is supposed to have lived some 400 to 500 years after the death of the Buddha. There is speculation that as the Buddhist missionaries visited as far to the west as Greece that the area of Jesus' birth would have some exposure to Buddhist thought. This is somewhat confirmed by the parallel events incorporated into the Jesus story by early writers which occurred in Buddha's story: * The virgin birth * Being a "King"

* Speaking from the cradle * Proposing the "Golden Rule" * Being reborn

True, Buddhist would have traveled far distances as characteristic in their beliefs and personas.

But the question stands as would Jesus travel to Buddha's place. In place of birth or land.

I still think not as he would not had the resources or the need to make such a dangerous long journey from his area.

A Buddist priest traveling would pass unmolested as it was well known that they only carried prayer beads and a bowl only. That route was very much infested with land pirates who attacked merchants. Merchants answered the call by hiring bodyguards, sometimes the someones who did the pirating.

Answer 2

NO

Answer:

Buddhism was present in the Eastern world for some 500 years between the birth of the Buddha and before the birth of the Christians' Jesus. Trade between India and Mediterranean countries was present and it is likely that information on the Buddhist thought (whether it was identified as such or not) was available to the Jewish community as it was to the Greeks. The extent that this influenced Christianity is unknown.

Answer 3

NO these two never did meet, one was in the Middle East and Buddha was in India under a pee-pal tree , so no chance at all.
