The New York Times bestselling author of
Buddha captures the extraordinary life of Jesus in
this surprising, soul-stirring, and page-turning novel.
Uncovering the transformational "lost years" that are not
recounted in the New Testament, Deepak Chopra has imagined
Jesus's path to enlightenment moving from obscurity to
revolutionary, from doubt to miracles, and then beyond as
the role of the long-awaited Messiah. As a teenager, Jesus
has premonitions of his destiny, and by the end, as he
arrives to be baptized in the River Jordan, he has accepted
his fate, which combines extremes of light and darkness.
With his characteristic ability for imparting
profound spiritual insights through the power of
storytelling, Deepak Chopra's Jesus portrays the life
of Christ as never before, ultimately leading us closer to
understanding the nature of God and the soul. As the author
shares, "I don't want the Jesus in this book to be
worshiped, much less to push him forward as definitive. The
events of the tale are pure fiction. But at a deeper level,
the Jesus in this book feels real because we've gotten a
glimpse into his mind. One flash of insight answers many
prayers."
