What is Namaste?........
It is the popular Hindu greeting performed by pressing two hands together and holding them near the heart. The whole act communicates to the world
______________________________
“You and I are one. I salute and worship the God within you which is indeed a mirror image of myself.”
Namaste concept originated from the Hindu belief that the real I within all of us is the immortal soul or ATMAN which is indeed God and our problem is our EGO, the FALSE BELIEF that we are the perishable material body.

The actual gesture of holding both hands together is known as ANJALI MUDRA..........
The word ANJALI came from the root word ANJ meaning "to honor or anoint".
Namaste is derived from the Sanskrit language and is a combination of two words, "Namaḥ" and "te". Namaḥ means 'bow', 'obeisance', 'reverential salutation' or 'adoration’, and te means 'to you.'
