When Cambodians greet persons of special importance, they offer a long and warm embrace. Then they gently lift the honored one into the air. This gesture places the honored one's head above the head of the greeter. It says, "I have deep reverence for your being."
To Practice This Thought:
Find a gesture which expresses your reverence for others by putting them higher — or first.
