Namaste Ka KAMAL

Since so long I was planning to write about one really nice thing happen in USA..

Before leaving USA I send a mail "Thanks to All" and that mail i send it to around 18-20 persons.. First two line of that mail was like

Hi and Namaste.

Namaste is the Indian word for greeting people, which means respect to you.

for that mail I got very nice reply's from our client. After that one of my colleague reach USA.. I guess everybody remember that "Namaste" word. but one lady from our client exactly remember that word and she send a mail to everybody giving details of my colleague and in that mail she wrote

Come say "Namaste!" to my colleague.

I replied to that mail saying "Its nice that you still remember Namaste." Then she said that she is very quick learner and one more thing she said is

we needed a better gretting than "good morning/evening". Namaste is perfect!

Its really very nice thing that person from other country using our word for greetings.. In USA Once I went to Post office.I want to send one parcel to one of my friend.. so i gave that parcel to that person in the post office. He took money from me, when i was leaving from the counter he simply said "Namaste" that also with folding his hands. I was shocked listening this word from him.

It's possible all this things are very small for some persons. But it makes me HAPPY.
