For sometime been wondering why Warren Hasting, Dalhousie are given 'Lord' titles? How ignorant we are to use and how hypnotized we are? Is it not time we call these people Warren Hasting or Dalhousie without Lord?
Calling Krishna or Rama with Lord and also these people with Lord really makes us, a society still in the grips of colonial slave mind set.
Word of Namas as the Muslims use and the Namaste of Hindus is interesting. The Namas of Namaste is to say the same meaning as what Muslims mean I guess ‘to bow’. The 'te' of Namaste is to mean 'to you'. So Namas means 'bow' while Namaste means 'bow to you'. I guess because Hindus (religion of Vedas) accepts God in All, and so when they say Namaste, they really mean bow to you (God in the person to whom namaste was said/done)....while am not sure if Muslims have that concept of accepting God in All. Do they?
In தெய்வத்தின் குரல் (Volume 7), one could read a lot on this topic of Namaste…
