Description
Namaste (/ˈnɑːməsteɪ/ NAH-məs-tay; Hindi: [nəməsteː] ), sometimes expressed as Namaskar or Namaskaram, is a customary greeting when individuals meet or farewell. It is a form of greeting commonly found among people of South Asia, in some Southeast Asian countries, and diaspora from these regions. Namaste is spoken with a slight bow and hands pressed together, palms touching and fingers pointing upwards, thumbs close to the chest. This gesture is called A�jali Mudrā or Pranamasana. In Hinduism it means "I bow to the divine in you."
