Giri, in the fourth chapter of Bhagavad-gita As It Is, Srila Prabhupada
writes of the different types of avataras:
There are various kinds of avataras, such as purusavataras,
gunavataras, lilavataras, sakty-avesa avataras, manvantara-avataras
and yugavataras--all appearing on schedule all over the universe. But
Lord Krsna is the primeval Lord, the fountainhead of all avataras.
Lord Sri Krsna descends for the specific purpose of mitigating the
anxieties of the pure devotees, who are very anxious to see Him in His
original Vrndavana pastimes. Therefore, the prime purpose of the Krsna
avatara is to satisfy His unalloyed devotees.
Somewhere else Lord Jesus is described as a sakty-avesa avatara or
empowered incarnation descending to fulfill a particular mission.
It is such a sad pastime. :~-(
