Question from a non-Hindu
A Christian poster in alt.messianic has posted the message excerpted
below. Based on my past experience with him, I believe it to be nonsense.
I would appreciate any replies or email that can conform or deny this:
>From: Al-chanan
>Newsgroups: alt.messianic
>Subject: Re: Hindus for yeshu?
[...]
>The Hindu Holy Scripture Srimad Bhagavatam (5000 yrs. old) prophecied of
>the birth of Yas'hua Christ, identifying Him as Son of God and calling
>HIM BY NAME!
>
>Srimad Bhagavatam (1st Canto, 3rd Chapter, 25th Verse).
>[The Vaishnava priesthood and their lineage have preserved Srimad
>Bhagavatam for over 5000 years] "athaasan yuga-sandhyaayaam dasyu-praayesu
>raajasu janitaa visnu-yas'aaso namana kalkir jagat-patih"
>Independent translation of 'non-christian' vaishnava sanskrit scholar:
>"Thereafter at the conjunction of two yugas (solar ages), The Lord of All
>Creation, will take His birth as the Incarnation of the Lord and be known
>as Son of God Yas'hua. At this time the rulers of the earth will have
>degenerated into plunderers."
>My translation: "Thereafter in the midst of two yugas, the Lord of All
>Creation, will be known as Jesus Son of God, Emmanuel. At this time most
>of the worlds rulers will have degenerated into plunderers"
