The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ is a book that claims to be transcribed from the akashic records; a purported compendium of mystical knowledge supposedly encoded in a non-physical plane of existence. It's basically an extensive reworking of the Jesus story with strong Theosophical and Spiritualist influences. Of interest is the attempt to fill in the two decade gap in the Jesus's traditional biography. According to Dowling, Jesus spent a lot of time in the mystical East where he learned esoteric methods from the masters, while rebelling against the caste system.
