Other Claims
Certain New Age spiritualists believe that another tomb of the Virgin Mary is located in Kashmir, India, where a town was originally named Mari. Proponents claim that Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary travelled to India after escaping the crucifixion, where they remained until the end of their lives. The authenticity of these claims are not academically established and has never merited any scholastic or academic research, nor canonical endorsement from the Holy See.

Famous quotes containing the word claims:
“So immense are the claims on a mother, physical claims on her bodily and brain vigor, and moral claims on her heart and thoughts, that she cannot ... meet them all and find any large margin beyond for other cares and work. She serves the community in the very best and highest way it is possible to do, by giving birth to healthy children, whose physical strength has not been defrauded, and to whose moral and mental nature she can give the whole of her thoughts.”
—Frances Power Cobbe (1822–1904)
“It is not God that is worshipped but the group or authority that claims to speak in His name. Sin becomes disobedience to authority not violation of integrity.”
—Sarvepalli, Sir Radhakrishnan (1888–1975)
