I greet the light in you

Hi Sheila,

Namaste can be translated in many different ways. I like "I greet the light in you".
When people say it they usually hold the ir hands together in front of their chest.

For other possible translations, check out :

NAMASTE IS A SANSKRIT GREETING THAT MEANS, I HONOR THE PLACE IN YOU IN WHICH THE UNIVERSE DWELLS. I HONOR
THE PLACE IN YOU WHICH IS OF LOVE, OF TRUTH, OF LIGHT, AND OF
PEACE.

The sanskrit word Namaste means 'I bow to the divine in you.'

Namaste !
