In the heart of ancient China, in the year 1907, a veil was lifted, revealing scrolls that whispered of a hidden lineage, a spiritual confluence that had long remained veiled from Western eyes. These were not mere historical documents, but sacred texts, dating from the 5th to 11th centuries, bearing witness to the life and teachings of Yeshua, interpreted through the profound wisdom of Taoism.
This book serves as a vessel, carrying the essence of these ancient sutras, offering a translation and a popular history that illuminates the forgotten pathways of spiritual convergence. It unveils the story of the first Christian missions to China, where the Church of the East embraced the principles of Tao, weaving a tapestry of Eastern and Western spiritual understanding.
Here, Yeshua transcends the boundaries of conventional understanding, becoming a Buddha Christ, a manifestation of universal love and enlightenment. The sutras, each a luminous thread in this tapestry, are revealed in detail, their contents offering a profound glimpse into a spiritual synthesis that resonates with the deepest yearnings of the soul.
Martin Palmer, a seeker of these hidden truths, shares his journey of rediscovery, recounting the tale of the Taoist Christians and their enduring teachings. He guides us to the remnants of an 8th-century monastery, an intact pagoda, where ancient statues and artifacts stand as silent witnesses to this extraordinary spiritual fusion.
This book is not merely a historical account; it is an invitation to explore the interconnectedness of spiritual traditions, to recognize the universal language of love and wisdom that flows through all paths.
