Tafseel kai liya daikhain:

Member November 25, 2020 at 12:02 amDoes anybody knows what Sat Sri Akal means. My guess would be (Seven respectable priests or Worriers)

Member November 27, 2020 at 1:27 pm@UmerQureshi got it. But Namasty means I bow to you isn’t it shirkiya kalima? Hassan bhai said there’s nothing shirkiya in Namasty and Sat Sri Akal

Moderator November 27, 2020 at 6:27 pmIt has both literal and spiritual connotations. Literally, one can say it means “I bow to you” but spiritually it has many dimensions like “the divine in me respectfully recognizes the divine in you.” Also, it has risen above from literary use and has now become more of a customary greeting thing than a person actually intending to bow to another person. But if one finds any polytheistic connotations or dimensions intended by the people, the one should definitely refrain from engaging in such greetings.
