It is said that Swami Sri Yukteshvar at one time had written a spiritual commentary on the Bible which, however, was not published. Once he spoke about it to a French gentleman who was holding some official position in the administration of the French settlement of Chandernagore with whom he had friendship. This Frenchman was very -much impressed by what he heard and wanted to read the manuscripts himself. Accordingly the manuscripts were handed over to him. When the two met next time the Frenchman expressed that he had been overwhelmed by what he had read exclaiming, "You will revolutionize the entire Christendom once these are published." He proposed that he might be permitted to take the manuscripts to Metropolitan France where he would like to show these to the scholars there, during his forthcoming visit on leave, promising to bring them back on return. Sri Yukteshvar agreed; but he did not get back the manuscripts as the Frenchman never came back to India again. The invaluable manuscripts were thus lost to futurity. Nobody knows what the commentaries were like as Sri Yukteshvar did not discuss the subject with anybody. However, he bequeathed to the grateful world in its place the Holy Science.

Priyantah (Sri Yukteshvar)gave to him the manuscript of the book to have him look at it. The Father was a philosopher by nature. He found in the manuscript that Karar Swami (Sri Yukteshvar) had dealt with Christianity in a new light of inner Realization, covering the incarnation of Jesus Christ, his sadhana, education and his close association with some realized Yogis of India in detail.

The Father...commented 'It will create a revolution in the Christian world' ...
