If you read the MahaBharata you will find that that the stories in the Bible generally do not compare with the profundity (and certainly not the breath) of the ancient Indian scriptures. I love the Bible and I am a devout Christian however I have also studied the Vedic writings and the noble truths in these writings are, at the very least, no less subtle and eternal as the Jewish and Christian truths. I have made a life-long study of ancient scriptures so I do not expect you would be familiar with the 18 major Puranas, the Upanishads, Vashista's Yoga, Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, and so on, but if you did, you would have a totally different point of view about whether there was "any other book comparable to the Bible."

Why the Bible its a reliable collection of documents, claims divine authorship not human origin. Written by eyewitnesses during life of other eyewitnesses. Supernatural events fulfilling specific prophecies. The whole Bible is about 1 GodMan.

You're out of your league partner. Although I certainly agree with you about the authorship of the Bible, you clearly have no understanding of ancient Indian "literature." The Good Lord did not suddenly appear to the Jews several thousand years ago and had paid no attention to the world before that. In particular, Jesus and his family were Essenes which means "outsider" in Hebrew. They were "outside" because thet remembered and taught Judaism how they learned it from their ancestors. They were part of what was called the "School of Virgin Knowledge." For all that has been forgotten or covered up there are certain clues who and what they were. For example (and this is just one), the whole business about the "star" and the three wise men tells us that the studied and practiced astrology. All astrology teaching comes from India. You may not like it but they did. Another example is even modern day Judaism teaches re-incarnation (check with the head rabbi of Israel if you don't believe me). Your very limited view of the world is showing. And for fun, if you would like a better education, try visiting Ista's Guha which is located about 12 miles up the Ganges river from Rishikesh in northern India. "Ista" is the Indian word for Jesus, "guha" is Sanskrit for "cave." There are some very nice people who will tell you all about Jesus's stay in the area. Good luck.
