A religion with thousands of idols and just as many saints and sages, find it easy adding Jesus. But reconciling that Jesus was just a guru, saint or prophet and not a Savior takes some spinning. Basically they threw out that he died on the cross for our sins, and decided to invent "Christ Conciousness," something we could strive for--works.
Jesus came to remove the law of "works" and the Eastern pantheistic religions brought it back, yet few realize it when they fall for their teachings.
The reason they get away with this kidnapping is two fold. First, their followers don't read the Bible, at least not the way you're supposed to read the Bible, but through their founder's interpretation. If they did read the Bible these fake guru's wouldn't be able to sell their message.
Second, Christians seem apathic to the thief of their Savior's good name. This is the first time in Christian history that Jesus is rarely defended for who he was, and not what the general population wants him to be!
Sometimes I think my blog readers wonder why I write about these things. Just leave these guru's and their minions alone, and who cares what they think or say, or write or brainwash people to believe about Our Lord? Well, I was involved in one of these groups and the damage they do isn't easily overcome. You might never have a healthy relationship with God again. To me that's important enough to share.
Of course they don't have Jesus, what they have is a fictional character they made up, like the Jesus who went to India and learned "secret teachings," that equate to Yoga Meditation. There is no evidence of this at all, but they push this belief.
Eastern religions are theologically different than Christianity and the two do not connect with a few scriptures that are quoted always out of context.
