This increases cosmic energy making a quick connect between two minds and hearts. 5 This is the reason we feel positive vibes when we take blessings from elders by touching their feet. 6 Touching feet is a sort of yogic posture which stretches our spine and acts as a sort of exercise in disguise. 7 In today’s modern time, we should not shy away from touching the feet of an elder as it is very essential. As a parent one must encourage your children to follow the tradition too. 8 To get more information on Indian Culture, subscribe to our YouTube Channel & also like our FB page Like us @ Facebook - Check us out on Google Plus - Follow us on Twitter - Follow us on Instagram - Follow us on Pinterest - Follow us on Tumblr -
