Namaskar is an expression of love and reverence.
When we fold our hands in Namaskar or bow to touch someone’s feet, it reflects our humility and respect for the other person.
But if we do it with the expectation that the other person must do the same in return, the essence of that Namaskar is lost.
A true Namaskar arises from pure love and respect — not from expectation, or as a mere formality.
To demand the same response in return is ego - not love.

Namaskar is sign of love and respect

ReplyDeleteI don’t agree with it.
ReplyDeleteIt is other way around. Person who is not responding to Namaskar is full of arrogance. A person who started first the action of saying or doing Namaskar is doing the right thing without any arrogance, he started it first, but the other person who is not responding is full of attitude or arrogance.
It is like a person started doing the full Dhan Nirankar by touching the other person feet, but the other person is not responding or just for the sake - say Dhan Nirankar or just touches the waist of other person without bending- then anyone can see who has the attitude or arrogance or think he is superior to other. Even a blind person can tell the difference.
As Newton said, to every action there is equal and opposite reaction.
The same principle applies to our behaviors too.
If a person doing Namaskar or Dhan Nirankar then the person accepting this must do the same otherwise the opposite reaction will be conveyed as Arrogance, Ghamand.
Bhagti ka bhi Ghamand ho jata hai sahib.
Indians preaching lessons of arrogance and giving examples of Namaskar- when they go to work and work with Americans- always say good morning, good afternoon or good evening and everyone knows very well what they get in return, the same thing.
After sneezing- God bless you- then Thank you.
Have a nice day or weekend, then what reply we get- thank you.
It should be a lecture of manners not a lecture of arrogance or expectations.
Please teach on manners.
Everyone should practice manners and expect manners.
Dhan Nirankar is also a practice of manners…..
