In India, you're taught that there are certain qualities that make you a divine human being.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I don't like this romanticization of Indian people in which Indian people are looked at as spiritual saviors, as people who have always taken care of the land. We're human beings. But I think different cultures have developed different aspects of humanness.
I do believe in the viability of Indian spiritualism.
I think that we all carry the divine within us.
There is nothing on earth divine except humanity.
What is divine? It is simply that which man has not been able to understand. Once you do, it loses its divinity.
The spiritual reality of the Indian world is very evident, very highly developed. I think it affects the life of every Indian person in one way or another.
In one word, this ideal is that you are divine.
The divine is perhaps that quality in man which permits him to endure the lack of God.
Indian religion has always felt that since the minds, the temperaments and the intellectual affinities of men are unlimited in their variety, a perfect liberty of thought and of worship must be allowed to the individual in his approach to the Infinite.
The way you become divine is to become wholly human.
