The Upanishads
These Hindu tablets called the Upanishads were recorded thousands of Years before those of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John; yet, they have a Krishna or Christ that was Crucified long before the Bible and Koran were created. Excerpts from the Upanishads are shown below:

These avatars such as Visnu took on the form of a fish when the earth was overwhelmed by a universal flood. The fish legend first appeared in Brahmanas (the impersonal world soul) and the Noah's ark theme. The tortoise (Kurma) Visnu became a great tortoise, and dived to the bottom of the cosmic ocean to reclaim the many divine treasures that were lost in the flood including the Ambrosia (Amrta, the food sometimes the drink of the gods in Greek mythology) with which Gods preserve their youth.

A demon, Hiranyaksa, cast the earth once more into the depth of the cosmic ocean. Visnu took the form of an enormous boar killed the demon, and raised the earth on his tusk. Another demon, Hirauyakasipu, had obtained a boon (blessing) from Brahma ensuring that he could not he killed by any man or beast. Safeguarded he persecuted all including his son. Prahlada (his son) called on Visnu for help. Visnu burst from a pillar of the demons' palace in the form of a half man and half lion and slew Hirauyakasipu.

A demon named Bali gained control over the world and commenced a course of asceticism (self denying) by which his supernatural power so increased that he menaced even the gods. Visnu appeared before him as a dwarf asking for a blessing of two strides, when granted the god became a giant and the two strides covered the earth, heavens and middle air.
