The Buddha and Christ: Both Human and Divine

"At the present time, the Avatars most easily recognised and known are the Buddha and the Christ, because Their messages are familiar to all and the fruits of Their lives and words have conditioned the thinking and the civilisations of both hemispheres; because They are divine-human Avatars and represent something which humanity can more easily understand; because They are of like nature to mankind, "flesh of our flesh and spirit of our spirit." They therefore mean more to us than any other Divine Emergence", from the book 'Externalisation of the Hierarchy' by Alice Bailey.
