Methods of Salutation is the seventh chapter of Ananda Marga Caryacarya Part 1 written by Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar.
Chapter synopsis
In this chapter Sarkar discussed three different methods of salutations— 1) sáśt́áuṋga prańáma [prostration], 2) carańa sparsha prańáma [bowing and touching the feet] and 3) namaskára [salutation].
Sáśt́áuṋga prańáma
Sarkar told Sáśt́áuṋga prańáma is the symbol of simplicity and it is to be done only to Marga Guru. This salutation signifies surrender to the ideology. Women should do salutation by touching the ground with the forehead instead of full prostration.
