For many people in the Christian community, Jesus is the one and only Son of God, but there is very little evidence, even in the Bible, that Jesus made this claim, regarding himself as the "Son of Man", which means a "person". Jesus recognized not only the all-importance of God the Father, but also that we (including him) are all "gods" in the making, that we are Divine, with the ability to use our Father's Power. This view has similarities to the "Dual Teaching" and "Non-Dual Teaching" schools of Yoga.

The purpose of this book is to examine the path of Yoga and the concept of Liberation, particularly in relation to the teachings of Jesus and subsequent practices in Christian Mysticism. It has been claimed by other parties that Jesus was a Yogi of the Indian spiritual paths, the term "Hinduism" being a relatively-modern name given to a variety of such paths. There is certainly evidence supporting this contention in what Jesus taught and stories regarding his travels outside of Judea. Whilst Jesus may not have been purely a Yogi of the Indian traditions, having come across a number of spiritual viewpoints during his living in various countries, his teachings and performance of supernormal feats show that he had extraordinary learning and may have influenced, and been influenced by, the writings of Patanjali, the "father" of Indian Yoga. Indeed, Jesus' core teachings can be looked upon as a form of Yoga, the ultimate aims of which are to lead a good life and achieve heavenly existence.

A sceptical but open mind is required in interpreting religious, spiritual, philosophical and scientific beliefs. There is a core of truth in pretty much all belief systems, and indeed a lot of inaccuracies and downright lies, the challenge for the spiritual seeker being to find or develop the right path. This is ideally achieved through wide reading and research, and making up one's own mind as to what is correct. Through learning and challenging of ideas, the truth-seeker can become "Enlightened" and take personal responsibility for his or her path in life, but with the full understanding of the limitations of what can be known, and free of the influences of national culture, religions, politics, viewpoints of friends and associates, and other external influences. The correct way to lead one's life is through one's own choices, there essentially being only one rule, which is to avoid harm to oneself or others (all forms of life) as far as is practically possible. This entails having an outlook primarily of selflessness rather than selfishness, and eliminating all acquired viewpoints and teachings which promote any kind of discontent or harm, even if they are stated to come from God, which they do not. Life is a game or illusion, and the purpose of the game is to attain ultimate happiness, which the Enlightened know is achieved through escaping our Earthly existence and not returning unless we wish to help others stuck in this realm of experience.
