PRAISE FOR

The Lifetimes When
Jesus and Buddha Knew Each Other

This book is shocking, and that's what I like about it. How did Jesus become the Christ and how did the Buddha attain Buddhahood? Are their stories somehow connected? These are just a few of the questions that Gary Renard and his teachers, Arten and Pursah, pursue in this book. At the very least, they challenge our willingness to consider the impact these masters can have on our lives today, not just in ancient times. I really think you're going to enjoy this journey.

James F. Twyman, best-selling author of The Moses Code and Emissary of Light

Arten and Pursah are back and better than ever, with their uncompromising message and pull-no-punches attitude, all the while reinforcing the importance of seeing in the light of pure nondualism. Additionally, they share with us a very intriguing and pleasantly surprising historical connection between Jesus and Buddha that the world doesnt even know about! Gary is his usual humorous self, and as always, candidly shares his forgiveness opportunities that we can all learn from. Giddy up!

Contents

The following text relates true events that occurred from October of 2013 to September of 2016. Except for my narration and notes, they are presented within the framework of a dialogue that has three participants: Gary (thats me) and Arten and Pursah, two ascended masters who appeared to me in the flesh. My narration is not labeled unless it interrupts the dialogue, in which case it is simply labeled NOTE. The many italicized words you will see indicate an emphasis on the part of the speaker.

It is not absolutely essential to believe that the appearances of the ascended masters took place in order to derive benefits from the information in these chapters, and I personally dont care what you think. However, I can vouch for the extreme unlikeliness of this writing being done by an uneducated layman such as myself without inspiration from these teachers. In any case, I leave it up to you, the reader, to think whatever you choose about the books origins.

Although this is my fourth book with Arten and Pursah, it is not necessary for you to have read the first three, which make up the
