Lily's Sacrifice

Hi all--

When thinking of Lily's sacrifice, I remember this bit from CoS, ch 
17:  "No one knows why you lost your powers when you attacked me," 
said Harry abruptly.  "I don't know myself.  But I know why you 
couldn't -kill- me.  Because my mother died to save me.  My common 
~Muggle-born~ mother," he added, shaking with suppressed rage.  "She 
stopped you killing me."

He learned this from Dumbledore, correct?  So, Lily's sacrifice is 
what saved Harry's life, and we don't know what exactly caused Voldy 
to lose his powers.  I've been figuring it's that "something about 
Harry" we have yet to learn about...
