Dear Sri Anbil svAmin,

It was delight, why an education even, to read your post on the
meaning of 'SwAmi' against the backdrop of your own personal
experience. I have no recollection of this particular post of yours
in the Bhakti list since I have not been a member there for several
years now.

I'm glad my own musings on 'swAmi' y/day was able to draw out from
you a valuable nugget from the archives for the benefit of all
members here in T'vengadam.

Thanking you and deep regards,
dAsan,
Sudarshan
