"Ancient texts reveal that Jesus spent 17 years in the Orient. They say that from age thirteen to age twenty-nine Jesus traveled to India, Nepal, Ladakh and Tibet as both student and teacher. For the first time, Elizabeth Clare Prophet brings together the testimony of four eyewitnesses and three variant translations--of these remarkable documents. She tells the intriguing story of how Russian journalist Nicholas Notovitch discovered the manuscripts in 1887 in a monastery in Ladakh. Critics ""proved"" they did not exist then three distinguished scholars and educators rediscovered them in the 20th century. Now you can read for yourself what Jesus said and did prior to his Palestinian mission. It is one of the most revolutionary messages of our time."
