道成肉身的英語是incarnation. 印度教不僅有道成肉身,而且不只一個, 有「ten most famous incarnations of Vishnu」。 有時間你可以查一查關於Hinduism and Incarnation的資料。
至於你說基督教所獨有的top-bottom的救拔,給你看一段Sri Aurobindo的文字(既談了印度教的救拔又談了道成肉身):「The LAW of sacrifice is the common divine action that was thrown out into the world in its beginning as a symbol of the solidarity of the universe. It is by the attraction of this law that a divinising principle, a saving power descends to limitand correct and gradually to eliminate the errors of an egoistic and self-divided creation. This descent, this sacrifice of the Purusha, the Divine Soul submitting itself to Force and Matter so that it may inform and illuminate them, is the seed of redemption of this world of Inconscience and Ignorance." (The Synthesis of Yoga, P106)

哥們,你是著急了才這麼幽默,還是二十多年來一直這麼幽默?把「ten most famous incarnations of Vishnu」 、 「This descent, this sacrifice of the Purusha」 與 基督信仰的「道成肉身」、「羔羊代罪」、「死里復活」混為一談,還把Sri Aurobindo的文字奉為經典表述。
My eyes are different from your eyes, but both of us have eyes. The Incarnation in Christianity is different from the Incarnation in Hinduism, but both Christianity and Hinduism have the concept of incarnation.
For differences and similarities between Hinduism and Christianity, please see the book "The Incarnation in Hinduism and Christianity: The Myth of the God-Man" by Daniel E. Bassuk.
