Namasté is a customary greeting when people meet or depart. It is commonly found among people of the Indian Subcontinent, in some Southeast Asian countries, and diaspora from these regions. Namasté 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 Añjali Mudrā or Pranamasana. In Hinduism it means “I bow to the divine in you”.

To perform Namasté, we place the hands together at the heart charka, close the eyes, and bow the head. It can also be done by placing the hands together in front of the third eye, bowing the head, and then bringing the hands down to the heart. This is an especially deep form of respect. Although in the West the word “namasté” is usually spoken in conjunction with the gesture, in India, it is understood that the gesture itself signifies Namasté, and therefore, it is unnecessary to say the word while bowing.
