In English we call him Jesus or "Geezus" phonetically. In Spanish he is "Heysuus" even though Jesus is still spelled the same. But in Aramaic he is known as Yesu (Yey suu) or as Yeshua (Yes shoe a) with a short a.
I wrote a short story that I call Yesu which explains how a man who was intuitively and intellectually gifted with excellent health could have actually become and done everything that Jesus was said to have accomplished and still have been a man. I believe this is what Jesus would have wanted everyone to believe that they were capable of when he said, "Even greater things than these shall Ye Do."
Yesu is at:
My wife and I started to talk about this and she has studied the Bible in College more than I have. As we spoke about this I mentioned that I had had an experience in India in December 1985 when I first started to get the Kalachakra Initiation from the Dalai Lama along with 500,000 others at that time. We had rented a horse cart to carry the five of us and the driver home because we hadn't yet rented accommodations in Magadh University near by. So he had to drive the horse cart to Gaya which is nearby the sacred area of Bodhgaya which is sacred to all Buddhists worldwide like Jerusalem is to Christians, Jews, Muslims and others. So in Bodhygaya there are temples dedicated to each country including a Thailand Temple and a Tibetan Temple and others. After the 4 day initiation into the Kalachakra Tantra we stayed at the accommodations for a few days at the Thailand Temple with my family nearby the Tibetan Lama we knew from Santa Cruz, California when he had come to help Lama Yeshe pass on in the early 1980s there. Later I met Lama Yeshe's incarnation Lama Oso who was then about 3 years old at a dedication of his stupa in Boulder Creek, California that contained part of his ashes from being Lama Yeshe.
Anyway, the first or second night on the way home in the dark on the horse cart to Gaya and our hotel our driver asked to go a longer route as he had to buy food for his family before he dropped us off or his family wouldn't have food to eat. So he bypassed through a an ancient village with no electricity. My family and I felt we had been transported 1000 or 2000 years before to life before. Our driver's dress was like Jesus would have worn and also the people of this village. As I listened to the clip clop of the horses hooves on the ancient unpaved road and rode on a very ancient horse cart with my family to our hotel we were amazed to see the Aladdin type of lamps in windows with families laughing and sharing and eating with no cars or trucks at all in this village and also no electricity or running water. The night was clear and warm and the stars were out even in December so we definitely felt like we were in the Holy land in the kind of place where Jesus grew up. Then the driver stopped and went into a store lighted by another Aladdin type of lamp with large containers of grains. The driver brought out bags of grains and staples and smiled at us and thanked us for our patience and then drove the horse cart to our hotel before driving home to his family. It was an experience of a lifetime!
