NAMASTE

The definition of Namaste (pronounced na, ma, stay) is both a physical gesture and a spoken spiritual salutation, which is the recognition of the divine spirit (or soul) in another by the divine spirit in you. The word Namaste translates simply to “I bow to the divine in you.” Seeing others through the definition of Namaste will help you to see the true divine spirit in everyone. By doing so you are literally meeting them at the soul level. You look beyond the surface into the true nature of every being.

There a many other interpretations of the meaning of Namaste here are a few:

• The God/Goddess within me acknowledges the God/Goddess within you.
• The Divine in me recognizes and honors, the Divine in you.
• The spirit within me bows to the spirit within you.
• I greet that place where you and I are one.
• I honor the place in you which is of love, of truth, of light and of peace.

No matter which interpretation you choose you should think of it as a divine blessing that honors sacredness and equality in everyone.

Greetings and Namaste,

Dale
