Premanand Maharaj Ji

Why should I not feel proud of my bhakti?

Your bhakti is Bhagwan's gift

The path, the strength to practise and the Name on your tongue are all given by Bhagwan, so there is nothing to be proud of. Ego leads to a fall.

Then why ego? You are not doing it yourself. Bhagwan, by his grace, gave you the path of bhakti and the strength to practise it.
