How does Christ Consciousness differ from the Jesus portrayed in the Bible? Is it compatible with Buddhism?
How is Christ Consciousness different from Jesus Christ? The first is a principle, an office, a position, that has been and will be held by many different people, while the later is a single, historical person, Jesus of Nazareth. In the New Age, not only Buddha and Jesus have held this position, but also many other avatars, who are manifestations, or incarnations, of this exalted office, or position. In this sense, Christ Consciousness and Buddha are quite compatible, and related.
