Namaste

Why "Namaste"? According to Dictionary.com, Namaste is a Hindu expression used as a greeting or as a parting. In translation, it more or less means "I bow to you." Many interpretations of this gesture, holding the palms vertically in front of one's bosom, exist. In general, it is a recognition of the Higher Spiritual Self in another, the understanding that each person's Spirit is apart of a singular Whole or Divine, and the comprehension that Oneness is acheived when both parties are in his or her own place in the Higher Self.
Regardless of the paths we shall follow, it is my belief that we are all apart of the same Spirit. We may have a different name for that Spirit; we may follow different religions, but these differences do not change the fact that we are One.

So, my friends, Namaste. I bow to you. When you are in your place, I am in my place, and we are One.
