Master or apocalyptic zealot? Who was Jesus and what did he teach? There is evidence heretofore overlooked by Western academia offering an astounding answer.Our story begins at the "Med", a vintage Berkeley caf� hangout for college kids and old-timers, young UC Berkeley students Robert and Kaitlin clash in an angry spat over their contrary religious and philosophical beliefs. Robert, a philosophy student and atheist, sets out to crack the riddle of the meaning behind the Crucifixion and finds knowledge, not belief, as the way to eternal life.Ancient texts more recently uncovered at Nag Hammadi, Egypt, the widely acclaimed Jane Roberts "Seth Material", Sufism, religions of the East; each explored by Robert as he comes to terms with Kaitlin's Christian religious beliefs, culminates in the message of a lost gospel, the teachings of Jesus rejected by the Church; a true message of life, of a real and actual world beyond; one with us here, one giving meaning - spiritual and metaphysical - to a world that for Robert and for so many today, had been without purpose.New direction begins here, the teachings revealed, a new and long sought world emerging, as Robert explores a neglected landscape.
