Science Behind Touching Feet In India - What does it mean when Hindus touch someone’s feet

Welcome to Geethanjali-Travel Saga. Do you know that Why Do We Touch The Feet Of Elders? What is the Science behind touching feet in India? In Indian tradition, due respect is shown to elders by the touching their feet. This tradition is still prevalent in many families. Let’s try and understand why we touch the feet of our elders. Our rishis have mentioned four benefits accruing from traditional act. When we touch the feet of our elders, it is supposed to give us strength, intellect, knowledge and fame. There are scientific reasons to back and support this conclusion. According to modern science, a human body contains negative and positive currents of electricity. The left side of the human body carries negative current, while the right side of the body has positive current. When you bow down with humility and surrendering your ego at the feet of elders, they emit positive thoughts and compassionate energy, which is called “karuna”. This is transmitted to you through their hands and toes. In essence, this completes a circuit that enables the flow of energy and increases cosmic energy, establishing a quick connect between two minds and hearts. To some extent, the same is achieved through handshakes and hugs. The nerves that start from our brain spread across our body. These nerves, or wires, end at the fingertips of our hands and feet. When we connect the fingertips of our hands to those of the feet of elders, a kind of circuit is formed that transmits energies between the two bodies. Our fingers and palms become the ‘receptors’ of energy, and the feet of the other person become the ‘giver’ of energy.
