Is shroud of Turin real?
wrote on 3/21/2005 12:16:42 PM :
The Shroud of Turin is a centuries old linen cloth that bears the image of a crucified man. A man that millions believe to be Jesus.
Is it really the cloth that wrapped his crucified body, or is it simply a medieval forgery, a hoax perpetrated by some clever artist?
I think it si a fogery. Come on, what facts do we really have? That it dates to the 12th century? And that a blanket found in Spain that dates back to teh 5th century has the same blood type as the shroud?
It's like this. You find a wallet on the street. No IDs inside, just 20 bucks and 20 year old movie ticket. And based on these facts you conclude that the wallet belonged to your grand dad....

I know it is unbelievable they spend so much time studying it.... Here is what would have been if it was a criminal case:

I see the search for the divine as the most important thing a Human can do. Even if the facts of history are incorrect, sometimes the benefits of the search still bring the Human into the light and into the realization that God is inside us all.
Jesus was a real person. His birth and death were far different than have been reported, but he walked the earth as an enlightened soul whose miracles and teachings were the beginning of a new dispensation. He taught unity, and the principle that all men could speak personally to God. He said, "You can be just like me!" and that is what our message is, also . . . that master-hood is within each of you. If you really want to know more about the real history, it???s very clearly in the scrolls, but it???s not in your scriptures!
And yes, he knows of your love, and all the things that your divinity knows. Like all of you, he is multidimensional, and is in many places at the same time. Did you know that you are, too?
Spiritual enlightenment is not about following any Human Being or any entity in the Universe. It???s about knowing that God resides within you, and that you???re an eternal part of His universal plan. This information has been brought to you from many masters and is within many cultures throughout the history of the earth.
Jesus, as well as other masters who walked the earth, not only gave you messages of empowerment, but then "walked the walk" so you could see that a Human Being could actually do what he said could be done. Many of you are poised on the edge of realizing this same thing.
