 Josaphat   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
"Josaphat," according to Kersten, is derived from the Arabic "Judasaf." Unfortunately, in Arabic, the letters J and B were often confused, so a more literal translation would be "Budasaf," as it is written in an Urdu version of the tale.
This not only is a possible tie to the Sanskrit term "bodhisattva," but also a tie to the Jesus-in-India theory, which claims he later used the name 'Yuz Asaf' and that this story refers to him.
He should not be confused with Saint Josaphat Kuncevyc (in fact, if you follow certain theories, he might be Jesus Christ); nor should Saint Barlaam be confused with Saint Barlaam of Calabria.
