Namaste Poem
With all the power of my arms,
With all the intelligence of my mind,
With all the love of my heart
I pay my due respect to the soul -
Within you. - Unknown.
Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.
—Andre Gide
Namaste is a gesture of friendship and kindness, also of thanks or special recognition. Literally means I respect you or
'the light within me bows to the light within you.'
