Authors

Tricia McCannon is a writer, teacher, and speaker about various facets of the world's mystery religions. She has been a guest on more than 150 national TV and radio shows, including the popular series Sightings, Unsolved Mysteries, and Strange Universe. She lives in Georgia.

A breathtaking work of staggering research and synthesis that provides startling new information and context to the first thirty years of Jesus’ life
 
Where was Jesus for the first thirty years of his life? Where and what was he taught?  Who were his teachers?
 
Based on new information culled from hard to find Vatican texts, theosophical classics, ancient texts, legends, and systems of hermetic symbolism, Tricia McCannon constructs a radical new timeline of Jesus’ life. She assert Jesus spent at least seven years of study and training in Egypt, a number of years in England, and visited both India and Tibet before beginning his public ministry in Palestine.
 
This is a wide-ranging examination of the direct links and similarities between Jesus’ teachings and those of various Mystery religions and sects that were popular during his lifetime, including the Essenes, Buddhist, Mithrans, Zoroastrians, and Druids. McCannon offers compelling evidence that places Jesus’s life and mission firmly in the context of the profound spiritual teachings that came before him.
 
Drawing on records from the Vatican, Tibet, India, and Egypt, along with Greek, Aramaic, and Pali text, as well as oral traditions of Jesus’s teachings, McCannon uncovers the real reason that he has remained such a powerful and pivotal figure in world consciousness for over two millennia.

“Thoroughly researched, interesting, and highly readable. I certainly recommend it to all who want to know more about the ‘lost years’ of Jesus’ life and also how his original teachings match other world religions, both before, during, and after his lifetime. As we pass from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius, Tricia McCannon has done modern readers a great service by compiling this very readable book about Jesus’s life and teachings.” —Chet B. Snow, Ph.D., author of Mass Dreams of the Future
