On a Sunday

 

At the end of each day, each worker in Japan - whether employed or self-employed - says to people who finished work with her, "Thank you for your hard work." And this greeting is returned by the folks addressed by the worker, "Thank you for your hard work."

In Japan, when two are more persons sit down to eat together, each does a Namaskar of gratitude and says, "Let's eat.". And then all proceed to eat.

On a Sunday most people are off work, so they don't get to say, "Thank you for your hard work." But, each person on a Sunday -whether on a date in a restaurant, or in a family lunch/dinner - does a Namaskar of gratitude and then says to others in the group, "Let's eat."

Everyday, there is a Namaskar of gratitude before eating, doesn't matter if it is a Sunday.

Something each individual needs to do, and then not only one will be contented but also at peace with the environment

Yeh toh hum hindustaniyon ki bahut purani parampara hai...neend se uth te aur sone se pehle... namaskar.

This small gesture ensures a meal which is had in peace and tranquility. Ensures cohesive feelings with colleagues and family.
