Pride is a tricky thing isn't it? One can be so proud that he refuses to admit it. The very moment one refuses to admit that one is proud, one is almost definitely proud. Pride is this strong sense of self that feels justified in every way despite reality being otherwise. In fact, pride distorts reality (this could be why it is hard to detect). We all have pride-to have no pride is to be egoless. For that to happen, one has to be enlightened! Are you an enlightened? Now watch it-you might "proudly" proclaim that you are proud. Be repentant! It is not a glamourous thing! It is different from basic human dignity. It takes a person to be mindful enough to realise that one is indeed proud to some extent. Only then can one seriously work at subduing pride. Are you proud? Answer this mindfully with conviction, with the least pride possible.
