Today I learned something new...

That the Mayans also had a word similar to the ones I was already familiar with such as "namaste".  How beautiful that the whole world shares a similar sentiment of love and appreciation.  The inflections and sounds we place on the expression changes, but the meaning is the same.

I found this on a website I visited recently about the Mayans... thought it was a beautiful senitment!

*In Lak’ech Ala K’in - The Living Code of the Heart - is an ancient Mayan greeting that when said with one’s hands cupped over one’s heart is an honoring of each other. In modern day interpretation it means I am another yourself, I am another you. In the traditional Mayan interpretation it means, I am you and you are me. It is a statement of unity and oneness. In Lak’ech Ala K’in mirrors the same sentiment of other beautiful and heart-felt greetings such as Namasté for East India, Wiracocha for the Inca, and Mitakuye Oyasin for the Lakota or Lakotah of North America.

lovely lovely...

Magical days,
