The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus, the Christ of the Piscean Age (1908) is an arch-fi book by Levi H. Dowling.

Abstract

“The Philosophic and Practical Basis of the Religion of the Aquarian Age of the World and of the Church Universal, Transcribed from the Book of God's Remembrances as the Akashic Records.” Modern apocryphon, supposedly the result of heavenly revelation, is another outstanding and very popular piece of fantastic archaeology, in the line inaugurated by Notovitch in 1894. Claims that Jesus spent the lost 18 years silent in the New Testament in the mystical East (across India, Tibet, Persia, Assyria, Greece and Egypt). In India Jesus learned esoteric methods from the Masters, while rebelling against the caste system. The success of the Aquarian Gospel was revived during the spiritual ferment of the 1960s, making it a cult text in the New Age movement ever since, and a fundamental source in later speculations about Jesus in India, notably, Jesus lebte in Indien (Jesus Lived in India / 1983 Kersten), arch-fi.

"The full title of this book is “The Aquarian Age Gospel of Jesus, the Christ of the Piscean Age,” and the critical reader is apt to ask a number of pertinent questions concerning it. Among the many anticipated questions these are perhaps the most important: 1 What is an Age? 2 What is the Piscean Age? 3 What is the Aquarian Age? 4 What is meant by the Christ as the word is used in this book? 5 What relationship existed between Jesus of Nazareth and the Christ? 6 Who is Levi, the transcriber of this book? 7 What are the Akashic Records?"--Publisher description.
