| Yeshua, A Personal Memoir
of the Missing Years of Jesus by Stan
I.S. Law, is a novel based on a statement by Edgar Cayce, the
late American prophet, that Jesus had visited "Persia, India,
Syria and Egypt to complete His education." The author has
thoroughly researched early Indian and Middle-Eastern history.
He illustrates conditions in which such an education might have
taken place to prepare Jesus for His ministry.. |

| Prologue |

I'd missed him by a day. A single day. I'll
never forgive myself. If it hadn't been for that stupid deal
when my father couldn't bear to lose a damn rupee, I would have
seen him again. There I was, riding like a maniac. All for nothing.
More than three years had passed since I last
saw him. I missed him from the day that we parted company. In
Egypt. He was the closest friend I ever had. As a matter of fact,
considering the time I spend traveling, he was virtually my only
friend. And now he's gone. Dead. They tell me the Romans executed
him. Like a common criminal. Why ? Yeshûa wouldn't steal
a crust of bread. He wouldn't hurt a fly. Not the Yeshûa
I knew. Could it really be true?
They've directed me to this broken down hovel.
A house, a shack really, on the back-streets of Jerusalem. Mud
bricks and a straw roof. The headquarters of his followers. I
just don't believe it. I can't. He was He wouldn't let them Yeshûa
where are you Yeshûa?
Don't listen to me. I am in a state of shock.
Wouldn't you be? You would, had you known him as I did. If you
knew him at all. Even if you had just met him. (cont)

| In each Newsletter
we publish an essay or an article by Stan Law (a.k.a. Stanislaw
Kapuscinski) with his inimitable slant towards the spiritual,
metaphysical and philosophical perception of reality, while seriously
peppered with humour. |
| |
| Today we invite you
to read CYCLES (Essay #21 from BEYOND
RELIGION vol. I) by Stanislaw Kapuscinski |
| |
|
Told that one is walking in circles would
be considered an insult. Or, at the very least, it would go a
long way to suggest a limited mental capacity. I am in great
danger of loosing a considerable segment of my none-too-numerous
readers by suggesting that a much more numerous segment of the
human race is, in fact, walking in circles. In order to retain
at least some of my public, I took the liberty of substituting
cycles for circles.
Voilá!
Much more palatable.
Deep down we all know that the difference
between the two is marginal. At best, a cycle offers limited
hope of a gradual rise along the track left by our efforts. The
cycle while inscribing the very same 360 degrees sounds better.
More scientific.
Feel better now? Do you?
I don't.
