Are you saying it was His karma or the karma of His followers? Big difference.

Jesus called them together and said, "You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them.

Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all.

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." [Marc 10. 42-45]

 

To suppose that Jesus "suffered" on the cross because of his own sins, seems like a blasphemous statement to me, as long as you would regard Jesus as a devotee. And taken the fact that only a devotee can truly recognize another devotee, the "devotee" who said this would be no devotee at all. I think you must have misunderstood. Did he refer to the "world-karma" or something?

sometimes the suffering of Jesus on the cross is compared to a Vaishnava guru suffering due to accepting many contaminated disciples. other karmic angles are probably just a speculation.

 

the easiest thing is to ask the devotee making such statements to explain them to you.
