Many Buddhists believe that Jesus was an emanation of the Deity named Avalokitshvara.
And the emanations have been numberless. Avalokiteshvara aided Shakyamuni Buddha
in light body form 2500 years ago. For evidence of this read the Prajnaparamita sutra.
Obviously I don't have time to name all his/her incarnations. (Light beings are non-dual
and not always gender specific though they are given a gender for the sake of the unenlightened.
And of course when they choose to emanate into a human body they choose
a gender according to what would benefit beings the most. )
Avalokitesvara emanated in human form as Jesus-as I said.
Therefore Avalokitesvara = Jesus
(Most people don't go deep enough and are not knowledgeable enough to understand
enlightened beings such as Jesus. And with limited deluded mind they try to limit Jesus
to one incarnation and do not understand that consciousness is infinite. Jesus doesn't just go
to some heaven and sit on his hands and become useless-that's retarded.)
Here's a brief list-since you asked:
King Trisong Detsun in the 8th century Tibet. A Peaceful, benevolent King
Then all subsequent incarnations of the Dalal Lama are emanations of
of Jesus/Avalokitesvara.
To reinvigorate Christianity Jesus/Avaloketisvara emanated as St. Francis of Assisi.
As well as a multitude of Christian Saints too numerous to mention.
When the current Dalai Lama (the 14th) visited Monticello in Virginia he mentioned
that Thomas Jefferson was an emanation of Avalokitesvara-therefore when people say
that this is a Christian nation they may want to look deeper into this.
In the 20th century I would guess that Padre Pio is an emanation as well as
Ghandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.
Jesus has lots of energy so don't give me some mental poverty line that Jesus can only
incarnate as one being at a time. These beings are not ordinary and since their compassion
is expansive each incarnation gets so much more life energy that they split into multitudes
of incarnations. That is why statues of Avalokitesvara are sometimes shown as multiplying
many heads.
The equation is Love/compassion gets more life energy whereas
hate/evil is a contraction of energy so that subsequent incarnations of evil people
end up being reborn as maggots, dung beetles-these incarnations are the hells actualized.
