Inkolelo yokuba uYesu wasinda ekubethelelweni emnqamlezweni kwaye wachitha iminyaka yakhe eseleyo eKashmir kukhokelele kwindlu yonqulo eSrinagar ukuyenza yaqina indlela yokundwendwela eIndiya.
Ngasemva kwedolophu yaseSrinagar kukho isakhiwo esidala esaziwa ngokuba yiRozabal shrine.
Ikwinxalenye yesixeko apho imikhosi yezokhuseleko yaseIndiya ijikeleza rhoqo, okanye ikroba ngasemva kwezithuba ezenziwe ngeengxowa zesanti.
Kusekho ukruthakruthwano ngamathuba athile nabalwi okanye abantwana abagibiselwa ngamatye, kodwa imeko yokhuseleko iye yaphucuka kutsha nje kwaye nabakhenkethi bayabuya.
Ukuqala kwam ukukhangela iRozabal kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, iteksi yajikeleza ingcwaba elincinane lamaSilamsi kwisixeko esineemosque ezininzi kunye neendawo zokuhlala, umqhubi wabuza indlela izihlandlo ezininzi ngaphambi kokuba siyifumane.
Itempile, ekwikona yesitrato, sisakhiwo samatye esithozamileyo esinophahla lwesiqhelo lwaseKashmiri olunamanqanaba amaninzi.
Umlindi wandingenisa ngaphakathi waza wandikhuthaza ukuba ndihlole igumbi elincinane elenziwe ngamaplanga ngaphakathi, linescreen esinemingxuma esifana netrellis.
Ngezikhewu ndandibona ilitye lengcwaba eligqunywe ngelaphu eliluhlaza.
Ukubuyela kwam kule ndawo ingcwele mva nje, ibivaliwe - isango layo litshixiwe ngenxa yokuba ibitsale iindwendwe ezininzi.
Isizathu? Ewe, ngokudityaniswa kwe-eclectic yamaKristu eSizukulwana esitsha, amaSilamsi angaqhelekanga kunye nabalandeli beKhowudi yaseDa Vinci, ingcwaba liqulethe iintsalela ezifayo zomviwa olona ndwendwe lubalulekileyo kulo lonke ixesha eIndiya.
'Unjingalwazi ophambeneyo'
Ngokusemthethweni, ingcwaba lingcwaba likaYouza Asafu, umshumayeli wamaSilamsi wamaxesha aphakathi - kodwa inani elandayo labantu likholelwa ukuba enyanisweni lingcwaba likaYesu waseNazarete.
Bakholelwa ukuba uYesu wasinda ekubethelweni emnqamlezweni malunga nama-2,000 e-Ista ezadlulayo, waza waya kuphila imihla yakhe eKashmir.
Yintoni enye abanokuyenza? Bekufuneka bayivale,” undixelele uRiaz.
Intsapho yakowabo iphantse yayibona indawo yetempile, yaye akayithandabuzi into yokuba uYesu wangcwatyelwa apho.
“Libali elasasazwa ngoonovenkile basekuhlaleni, kuba nje unjingalwazi othile ophambeneyo wathi lingcwaba likaYesu. Bacinga ukuba kuya kuba kuhle kwishishini. Abakhenkethi babeza kuza, emva kwayo yonke le minyaka yobundlobongela.
“Kwaye ke yangena kwiLonely Planet, kwaye abantu abaninzi baqala ukuza.
“Kwaye omnye wasemzini…” wandinika imbonakalo exolisayo, “waqhawuka kancinane engcwabeni ukuya naye ekhaya. Yiyo loo nto ivaliwe ngoku. "
Ngokucacileyo, kwavela abantu baseOstreliya abangahlanjwanga nabadiniweyo, bephethe ushicilelo lwamva nje lweLonely Planet yesikhokelo sokuya eIndiya, ethe, ngokuqinisekileyo, yayiphethe ibali lengcwaba likaYesu, kunye nemithetho ethile malunga nee-crackpot kunye nokunyelisa.
Bandicela ukuba ndibathathele ifoto ngaphandle kwetempile - kodwa khange baphoxeke kakhulu kukuba ivaliwe.
Ingcwaba likaYesu yayiyenye indawo yokuphawula kuluhlu lwabo lwabakhenkethi baseIndiya ekufuneka belundwendwele.
Intlanganiso eyaziwayo
Amabhodlo endlu yoonongendi yamaBhuda kwindawo ebukekayo kumgama okwicala lentaba emantla eSrinagar akakakhankanywanga kwiLonely Planet.
Yindawo endingazange ndikwazi ukuyindwendwela ngaphambili, kuba njengoko ipolisa eliphezulu landixelelayo, “yayizaliswe ngabanqolobi”.
Kodwa ngoku umlindi wabonakala ekulungele ukufika kokhenketho olukhulu, enamagama akhe angama-50 esiNgesi, kunye nesitokhwe sakhe esifihlakeleyo seethayile zeterracotta zamandulo ezithengiswayo.
Wandazisa ukuba uYesu wayephakathi kweenkokeli zonqulo ezazizimase intlanganiso yodumo lwamaBhuda apha ngo-AD80, wada walatha nendawo awayehleli kuyo.
Amabali kaYesu eIndiya awajoliswanga nje kubakhenkethi abakhohlisayo - asusela emva kwiNkulungwane ye-19.
Babeyinxalenye yemizamo yokucacisa ukufana okumangalisayo phakathi kobuKristu kunye nobuBhuda, umba oxhalabisa kakhulu abaphengululi be-19th Century - kunye nomnqweno phakathi kwamanye amaKristu wokucombulula ibali likaYesu kumhlaba wamaNdiya.
Iminyaka engekhoyo
Kukho intetho ngeminyaka engekhoyo kaYesu, engakhankanywanga kwiincwadi zevangeli, xa wayephakathi kweminyaka eli-12 nengama-30 ubudala.
Abanye bathi wayeseIndiya, echola-chola iimbono zamaBhuda. Ezi ayizongcinga eziye zaphela ngokupheleleyo.
Ihlelo lobuKristu elizinze e-US, elaziwa ngokuba yiCawe yeHlabathi kunye neNkoyisile, ngoyena mxhasi wanamhlanje owaziwayo wenkolelo yokuba uYesu wayehlala eKashmir, nangona bengakholelwa ukuba wafela apho.
Kwaye kwiSilamsi, apho uYesu engumprofeti ongaphambili, kukwakho isithethe sabantu abambalwa esamkelwa lihlelo eliphikisanayo lika-Ahmeddiya, lokuba iRozabal ayinalo ingcwaba likaYesu.
Ababhali-mbali abachwephesha bathanda ukuhleka kakhulu xa ukhankanya ingcamango yokuba uYesu usenokuba wayehlala eKashmir - kodwa ingcwaba lakhe ngoku liqinile kwindlela yabakhenkethi - kwaye inani elikhulayo labatyeleli abakholelwayo ukuba wangcwatyelwa kwindawo engcwele yaseRozabal.
Yaye kwabo bagculelayo, khumbula ukuba abanye baye baphikisa, ngendlela engakholelekiyo, yokuba uYesu weza eBritani.
Ingcamango eyayixhaphakile xa imbongi uWilliam Blake yabuza ngokudumileyo: “Yaye ngaba ezo nyawo zamandulo zazihamba phezu kweentaba zaseNgilani eziluhlaza? Yaye ngaba iMvana engcwele kaThixo yabonwa kumadlelo amnandi aseNgilani?”
