The book God and Divine Incarnations, is a compilation of discourses by Swami Ramakrishnananda, a direct disciple of Sri Ramakrishna.

• The book integrates various speeches and articles originally published in journals like The Brahmavadin and Prabuddha Bharata.

• The author, described as a "spiritual stalwart," analyzes traditional Hindu mythology and Sanatana Dharma with the analytical rigor of a scientist, arguing that these spiritual truths can withstand any scientific scrutiny.

• The book specifically highlights discourses on seven primary Avataras (Incarnations): Matsya, Kurma, Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, Parasurama, and Sri Krishna.

• Published by Sri Ramakrishna Math (Mylapore, Madras) in July 1947, the book is intended as a guide for "seekers after truth."
