Re: Vaisnavism vs Nationalism

Dear Bhaktas and Prapannas,

Please let us not get into any discussion about the Indian Nuclear issue on
this list. I say this even though I fully agree with the sentiments given
by Mr. Anand Vangipuram recently. I am neither an Indian nor an American,
yet I do see the obvious pro-Pakistan slant taken by the American media not
only in this issue but in practically all South Asian matters. However I
just want to point out that there is a very big difference between
Nationalism and Vaisnavism. We should not confuse the two. This topic
should be discussed, but please not in this forum. Try Usenet.

sincerely

Keshava das
