I have always seen this as a parable, and so yes, it's true!

I thought for a long time that Christianity was total rubbish and fairytale.
However, I've read an interpretation of what Christ did showing it as a path of three-pronged nagual. His task was to physically manifest every step of his path - from becoming to teaching to breaking free from form on the cross and re-joining the formless realm. His every minute with human beings was a lesson, a manifestation.
