A vision of Christ and Krishna

Dear Forum Members:

The following fascinating description of a vision of Jesus Christ and Sri Krishna is found in Whispers from Eternity by Paramahansa Yogananda:

 

A Vision of Christ and Krishna

I beheld a great blue valley encircled by mountains that shimmered jewel-like. Around opalescent peaks vagrant mists sparkled. A river of silence flowed by, diamond bright.

 

And there I saw, coming out of the depths of the mountains, Jesus and Krishna walking hand in hand --- the Christ who prayed by the river Jordan and the Christ-na who played a flute by the river Yamuna.

 

They baptized me in the radiant waters; my soul melted in fathomless depths.

 

Everything began to emit astral flames. My body and the forms of Christ and Krishna, the iridescent hills, the glowing stream, and the far empyrean became dancing lights, while atoms of fire flew. Finally nothing remained but mellow luminosity, in which all creation trembled.

 

O Spirit! In my heart I bowed again and again to Thee --- Eternal Light in whom all forms commingle.
