What does Namaste mean?

At the end of my classes, and that of many yoga teachers, I end with the word Namaste... what does it mean?  The literal translation of Namaste is "I bow to you.".  It is used as a respectful greeting and also to mean "thank you". In a yoga class it is said to mean "the light in me bows to the light in you" or "I bow to your true self".

 

Favorite Quotes ...

"the third component of the Law of Dharma is service to humanity--to serve your fellow human beings and to ask yourself the questions,"How can I help? How can I help all those that I come into contact with?" When you combine the ability to express your unique talent with service to humanity, then you make full use of the Law of Dharma. "
