The Second Coming of Christ
The Second Coming of Christ: The Resurrection of the Christ Within You
A reading of Jesus's words as a teaching of yoga: the "second coming" is not a future historical event but the awakening of Christ consciousness in each person through meditation. It comments on the baptism, the Sermon on the Mount, the miracles and the resurrection in parallel with the Bhagavad Gita, and argues for the essential unity of original Christianity and Krishna's yoga.
