Namaste

It becomes second nature after a while. The universal Hindi greeting namaste (nam-as-tay)is used on occasions when you meet friend or acquaintance, when you thank someone for a service and as mark of respect; namaste is your spiritual self recognising another's spiritual self. Hands together prayer pose next to heart and offer the greeting together with a modest bow. It's lovely really.

Interesting that namaste has almost the same metric pattern as 'hava-nice-day'............
