This increases cosmic energy making a quick connect between two minds and hearts.<br /><br />5 This is the reason we feel positive vibes when we take blessings from elders by touching their feet.<br /><br />6 Touching feet is a sort of yogic posture which stretches our spine and acts as a sort of exercise in disguise.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />8 To get more information on Indian Culture, subscribe to our YouTube Channel & also like our FB page<br /><br />Like us @ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/ArthaChannel/ <br />Check us out on Google Plus - https://goo.gl/6qG2sv <br />Follow us on Twitter - https://twitter.com/ArthaChannel <br />Follow us on Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/arthachannel/ <br />Follow us on Pinterest - https://in.pinterest.com/channelartha/ <br />Follow us on Tumblr - https://www.tumblr.com/blog/arthachannel
