It takes at least forty-eight hours for a person to die on\u00a0the\u00a0Jewish cross, and there have been known cases where people have existed almost six days on\u00a0the\u00a0cross without dying.\u00a0Because\u00a0Jesus was taken down from\u00a0the\u00a0cross after only six hours, there\u00a0is\u00a0no possibility\u00a0of\u00a0HIS death on\u00a0the\u00a0cross. It was a conspiracy between a rich sympathizer\u00a0of\u00a0Jesus and Pontius Pilate to crucify Jesus as late as possible on Friday &#8212;\u00a0because, on Saturday, Jews stop everything; their Sabbath does not allow any act. By\u00a0the\u00a0evening\u00a0of\u00a0Friday, everything stops.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">The\u00a0arrangement was that Jesus would be crucified late in\u00a0the\u00a0afternoon, so before sunset, he would be brought down. He might have been unconscious\u00a0because\u00a0so much blood had flowed out\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0body, but he was not dead. Then he would be kept in a cave, and before\u00a0the\u00a0Sabbath ended and\u00a0the\u00a0Jews hung him again, his body would be stolen by his followers.\u00a0The\u00a0tomb was found empty, and Jesus was removed from Judea as quickly as possible. As he again became healthy and healed, he moved to India and Jesus lived a long life &#8212; one hundred and twelve years &#8212; in Kashmir.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Like our ancient seers &#8211; Jesus had\u00a0the\u00a0spiritual powers or strength to travel outside\u00a0the\u00a0physical body &#8211; while being\u00a0alive! Else how can a man who\u00a0is\u00a0NAILED on\u00a0the\u00a0CROSS &#8211; can remain &#8211; so peaceful &#8211; so silent! TRUTH\u00a0is\u00a0silent. Jesus also remained silent while\u00a0the\u00a0Romans nailed HIM on\u00a0the\u00a0cross.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">When\u00a0the\u00a0Romans were about to crucify Jesus &#8211;\u00a0Pilate,\u00a0the\u00a0Roman prefect\u00a0&#8211; was more understanding toward Jesus. He continuously felt that an innocent man was being unnecessarily crucified and he tried his best not to crucify him. But then, there were political considerations. Even when they were about to crucify Jesus, at\u00a0the\u00a0last moment, Pilate asked him a question:\u00a0\u201cWhat\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0truth?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Jesus remained silent. It was a Buddhist answer. Only Buddha has remained silent about truth, no one else. Something has always been said \u2013 even if it\u00a0is\u00a0only that nothing can be said. Only Buddha has remained silent, totally silent.
