The doctrine of the incarnation, of the divine word becoming flesh, is the real core of Christianity. But the concept is not not as unique as some would think. For Hinduism, incarnation is considered natural and a part of life.
This book deals both with the things that bring Chritianity and Hinduism together and those that separate them.The author says, "The subject of the incarnation is a continual preoccupation with me, because I see in Christ an incarnation of God and because I believe that a study of Ramakrishna throws a little more light on this mystery and therby on Christ as well.
