As yoga is gaining popularity, so is the salutation – Namaste, which yogis give to each other at the end of a class. While yogis are now spread across the globe, yoga is an Indian discipline and saying Namaste at the end of a session is very significant. The zen yogis may be saying it at the end of their classes but do they really know what the word means? Not likely.

WHY NO PHYSICAL CONTACT DURING SAYING NAMASTE? Against the western culture of shaking hands which facilitates a faster exchange of energies, in Namaste, you only bow down to a person while your hands form a Namaskar Mudra. This is done because you are bowing down to the spiritual energy within a person, rather than his physical aura. When you do physical contact, negative aura from other people can flow towards you, which does not happen if you say Namaste.
