We lose our divinity inside us by constantly identifying ourselves with the unstoppable compulsive chatter of mind. We identify ourselves with these thought forms and drive an idea of who we are from them. We are all eternal souls but lost connection to our inner being. The easiest way to understand who we are, what is our purpose in this life, is to do meditation. Read Echarte Tolle's "the Power of Now" for a complete understanding of thoughts, emotions, pain body.

I completly agree with dhyanjagat. May be this is too technical for geeks like techno, but just try/experience the power in our own system of yoga and meditation before passing judgements. We are running behind westerners and see what they are doing, they are running behind our systems. Yoga and meditation has a huge following in western world. Look at Bikram yoga centre in Mumbai which is run at 40 deg C. Think abt columbus, he never set for china or japan or elsewhere. He set for India, like numerous others at that time, since we were thriving in culture, education, wealth etc etc...westerners like in US, they just dont have culture and they are relatively new with just 350/400 odd yrs of history. PPl come back to india and to its ways of doing things...just read/study...take help from those who practice/experienced these virtues...and then arrive at conclusion for urself...i have lived in this country as well as in other countries..
