Chrishna –  of Hindostan   -  CRUCIFIED

 1200 BCE INDIA

AKA Khrishna.  Commonly spelled with a ‘K” – Krishna – to not confuse as being Christian.  This is the most probably source of the words Christ and Christian novel the New Testament.  

Krishna was born of a virgin (Devaki) on December 25.  He died around the age of 30.  He died on a tree crucified between two thieves (some traditions).  He was pierced and crucified.  The deaths resulted in a Sun darkening at noon.  He  “resurrected” from the dead.  He descended into hell.  He ascended to heaven “in the sight of all men.”   He came to earth to die for the salvation of man. Krishna was deemed “Son of God”, “Our Lord and Savior.”  He was part of a trinity, the second person.  His disciples gave him the title of “pure essence” which sounds close the the name Jesus (in Hindustani).
