Namaste!
Namaste is a very beautiful word in our language having a very deeper meaning for it, Namaste means:
“the divinity within me , salutes the divinity within you”.
And when you bring both your hands together at the level of the heart, one hand stands for me, the other for you and when we bring it together at the heart, I imply that in essence, both you and me are one. Bringing it to the heart level implies love.
This bringing of hands together at the heart level and saying namaste is very powerful if done properly.
Try doing that to the next person you meet and when you bring your hands together and say Namaste, do it while looking deeply in the others persons eyes. You will feel the connection happen immediately.
In India Doing Namaste have its own mean an doing this is not teach or trained. its developed automatically inside us as we grown up. Doing Namaste is giving respect from deeper heart an in feed back we getting too, from another person.
While I was searching for a photograph to go along with this Blog, I came across this small piece of writing which I feel explains Namaste so beautifully. Unfortunately, I am not sure who the author is. Here is the piece:
I honor the place in you
In which the entire universe abides,
I honor the place in you
Which is of love, of truth
Of light and of peace.
When you are in that place in you
And I am in that place in me,
We are one….
Namaste to all of you
