Which Avatar was the greatest?

Jesus the Christ, as the Savior of humanity, is the same Great Avatar in His Universal Aspect as the Light and Life and Son of His Father, manifesting through this world, through all creatures and all things, as that Power, which is forever drawing them upward and Godward. Therefore, in one sense the two are one. Yet as Jesus He seems to come closer to us because Jesus was the human aspect in which He manifested. 

If you recognise that in reality the Christ manifests through the Higher Self of each soul, passing through its pilgrimage of earth and lifting up all the events of earth, then in very truth, He is closer, and you can call on Him to enter into you and help you to pass through all your trials.
