Ask Osho!

Who carried away the corpse of Jesus?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Jesus was not dead; he was rescued from the cross by those who loved him, transforming the story of resurrection into a tale of compassion rather than a mere miracle."

According to Osho, Jesus’ ‘corpse’ was taken down and carried away by Joseph of Arimathea, with Nicodemus—both linked to the Essenes. Osho adds that Jesus was not dead but in deep swoon; these friends removed him from the cross, tended him in the tomb, and helped his recovery, turning the later ‘resurrection’ into a compassionate rescue rather than a miracle of death-defeat.
Osho says Jesus wasn’t dead; his Essene friends Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus took him down and cared for him.
