*The gesture of '''Namaste''' is essentially Indian. It is the symbol of greeting from ancient times.*The literal meaning of namaste is - '''Namah''' bow '''te-to you- I bow to you'''.*Namaste represents the belief that there is a divine spark within each of us that is located at the heart chakra.*This salutation is the essence of our culture of seeing the divine within all the creation. Hence this gesture is offered equally in temple to deities, teachers, family, friends, strangers and even before scared rivers and trees.
