And this is where the thinking diverges.I do not believe God is inside of me, that is blasphemous to the very concept of God.
Any God if really a God would have to be all-merciful, all powerful, all knowing, and ever present. A human does not have even one said trait as an absolute let alone all.
We believe - most Hindus - that a part of God is in each living thing. This is only understandable once you let go of the concept that God is only a physical being but think of it as Energy as well.
We meditate to achieve that connection/activate that part.
Once we achieve that via meditation. We become one with the God, with the Universe. We then do become all knowing/all merciful/all xyz.
Which is what Budha did. He achieved Enlightenment. And we believe that there are many Yogi's who are able to achieve that with meditation and yoga.
