Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Namaste is commonly connected with the symbol of om. If you’ve ever been to a yoga shop, you’ve probably seen plenty of t-shirts with this symbol. It looks like the number three with a hook growing from its backside, topped off with a dot and a slash above.
Detailed explanation-2: -Namaskãr (Namaste) comes from the Sanskrit word ‘namaha, ‘ meaning to bow. During the namaskãr, we press our palms together and then bow our head and upper body to the person we meet. Also known as pranam, this is Hindu Sanatan Dharma’s modest ritual of greeting.
