Question: One tradition claims that Jesus traveled to India and Tibet during the "lost years" before the beginning of his public ministry.
People say that Jesus had spent His years between tweleve and thirty in Kashmir.
-----------------------
Explanation:
Jesus went to temple at the age of 12 and after that He lived under the supervision of His parents. It shows clearly that He never went to Kashmir.
These Bible references also tells that Jesus was all the time with His parents in city called Nazareth in Israel and He never visited Kashmir.
Luke 2:42 And when He was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast.
Luke 2:51 Then He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them,
Luke 2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
Luke 3:23 Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age,
These Bible verses also tells that People knew Jesus very well because He stayed among them and He was there all the time. When they saw mighty miracles they said, "Is He not carpenter's son? Are they not all with us then from where He gained this knowledge? Mat 13:56 "And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this Man get all these things?"
These biblical accounts say Jesus never left Israel but He was always there.
Mat 13:53 Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these parables, that He departed from there.
Mat 13:54 And when He had come to His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, "Where did this Man get this wisdom and these mighty works?
Mat 13:55 "Is this not the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary? And His brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
Mat 13:56 "And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this Man get all these things?"
Mat 13:57 So they were offended at Him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house."
