Respected Swami, I apologize for any mistakes. If at all we are proud, we are proud of PerumAL's qualities and blessings on us. So there is no "ahankAram" in it as such. That is why pUrvAchAryas do not use that word. Am I right?

We should consider it in a sense of pride or rather a sense of belongingness. Definitely not in the sense of ego. For instane I am proud to be an Indian. This patriotism is definitely indispensable. I dont think this is ego. We should consider this in that angle. > ' > regards > dAsan > vanamamalai padmanabhan > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
