Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ

The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ is yet another woo book claiming to be a lost gospel. It was published in 1908 by Levi Dowling, a Church of Christ minister who claimed he obtained the text from the Akashic Records, a Theosophical concept of a mystical library existing on another plane of existence containing all the knowledge of the universe.

The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ attempts to fill in the gap in the gospel records of Jesus by claiming he traveled to India and Tibet in his young age to learn from the gurus there before beginning his ministry in Palestine. The book also endorses reincarnation. It is riddled with historical errors, for example naming Herod Antipas as the ruler of Jerusalem at the time a different Herod ruled, and claiming Jesus visited Lahore, India (now in Pakistan), which did not officially exist at the time.
