Social Distancing is very important the worse ones who don't mantain social distancing because they are born stupid and remain stupid all their lives are Indian race Gujaratis and most black women ...they tend to touch you a lot although you dont know them or hve wih or desire to be touched by them ..also an ego trip by them feeling superior by touching you ..actually they are uncivilised beings who dont know what social distancing means ... bloody idiots .
In the Temples where there are mainly Gujaratis who like to touch you ...why ? Ego trip... Uncivilised
On the bussesmainly black women like to sit as close as possible to you so as touching you ... not maintaining social distance ..uncivilised making you feel uncomfortable.
In both cases they need to be put in rehabilitating centres where they should be taught on how to keep social distance and not touch people.
NAMASTE ( NON CONTACT GREETING ) IS THE CORRECT WAY TO GREET
The History of Namaste
Namaste is an ancient Sanskrit word with Hindu roots that dates all the way back to the Vedic period. It’s an expression that has been used for literally thousands of years and while Namaste has many different translations and uses, it is above all an expression of respect. While the word Namaste originated long ago in the East, it has slowly become a common expression in the West thanks to the rising popularity of yoga and other spiritual practices.
Now that you know a little bit about the history of the word, let’s talk about what it actually means.
The Definition of Namaste
Namaste is an expression of appreciation and respect towards another person, entity or deity. It can be used as a hello greeting and even as a goodbye, so you might say Namaste upon meeting someone, or before parting ways.
It is derived from two key Sanskrit words:
Namah: bow, adoration, salutation
Te: to you
The most literal translation of Namaste is “I bow to you,” but there are many different interpretations of the word, some of which are listed below.
The Many Meanings of Namaste
Hello
Welcome
I see you
I bow to you*
I honor you
I respect you
We are one
We are equal
My spirit bows to your spirit
The divine in me honors the divine in you
Farewell, goodbye
*The most literal translation
There are also several versions of the Namaste Prayer, which expand on these translations.
NAMASTE PRAYER
I honor the place in you in which the whole universe resides.
I honor the place of love, light and peace.
When you are in that place in you
and I am in that place in me
we are truly one.
Namaste.
When we simply say ‘Namaste’, we are conveying the energy and respect of the Namaste Prayer in a concise way.
Is There a Right Way to Say Namaste?
Are you ready to honor yourself and others with a Namaste greeting, but you’re not sure how to express it correctly? The good news: there is no ‘right’ way to say Namaste, as long as it is being used as an expression of respect and gratitude and being pronounced correctly. It is a three-syllable word that is pronounced nah – muh – stay.
When saying Namaste, we typically bow the head slightly and bring the hands together at heart center in a ‘mudra’ or hand gesture called Anjali Mudra. In yoga, we use hand mudras to connect the mind and body and to deepen our yoga practice. Using Anjali Mudra when we say Namaste can help us connect to the intention of expressing respect and gratitude and also help us internalize the meaning and energy behind the word.
But, did you know that you could even say Namaste without saying anything at all?
You can use Anjali Mudra alone or along with bowing the head to express the meaning of Namaste without actually speaking the word aloud
