How Do I Pay Respect to My Parents and Teachers? |

Pratuthana - rising to welcome a person. Namaskaara - paying homage in the form of namaste. Upasangrahan - touching the feet of elders or teachers. Shaashtaanga - prostrating fully with the full body touching the ground in front of the elder. Pratyabivaadana - returning a greeting
