>Historians agree that Caesarion was born in Egypt in 47 BC. He was said to have a close resemblance to his father, Julius Caesar. Caesarion was declared “the King of Kings” and known as the “Lord of Lords” during the time of his reign, the last pharaonic dynasty to rule Egypt. After the death of his mother Cleopatra, Plutarch says that Caesarion had actually escaped to India, but was falsely promised the kingdom of Egypt.

>Since Caesar and Cleopatra were never married, it is important to note that Caesarion was born out of wedlock. It is also quite significant that “Cleopatra compared her relationship to her son with the Egyptian goddess Isis and her divine child Horus.” In order to emphasize this special relationship, as well as to invoke the divine right of kings, Cleopatra very carefully choreographed all of the necessary rituals and observed the various rites of passage generally accorded to a young pharaoh-in-the-making.

>Perhaps the story of Jesus being born in a manger in the town of Bethlehem was meant to move the entire narrative out of Egypt and Rome and into an exceedingly humble setting in Palestine. In this way Jesus quickly becomes the Jewish son of a very humble carpenter named Joseph and his wife Mary. The virgin birth, of course, is also added to confer divinity upon the newly born Yeshua or Immanuel (God is with us).

>Caesarion escaped the wrath of Octavian, successor to Julius Caesar, by successfully fleeing to India, land of the Buddha and Lord Krishna, two other Gods incarnate. The actual story surrounding this escape sets the stage quite well for identifying Caesarion as the original Jesus Christ.

>Caesarion became an adept in the Hindu spiritual traditions of meditation and discipleship. Every great spiritual master comes from the discipleship to another great spiritual master, and Jesus the Christ was no exception.

It's an interesting theory that I found a while ago haven't immediately disregarded it.
