Namaste!
That wonderful gesture of palms together at the heart and a gentle bow seems to be ’felt‘ in all countries and cultures and is a natural greeting, a thank you, a sign of respect.
An original translation from the Sanskrit reads:
I honour the place in you where the entire universe resides.
I honour the place in you of Love, of Truth, of Peace and light;
And when you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me,
There is only One of us.
Namaste to you all!
