Touching elders’ feet is often seen as a ritual but what does it really mean?
In this episode of State of Mind, Dr. Shyam Bhat explores the psychological, emotional, and cultural significance behind touching elders’ feet. Beyond tradition, this practice reveals how respect, humility, and connection are expressed across generations—and how its meaning has evolved in modern society.
This conversation looks at:
• Why this gesture exists across Indian culture
• The emotional impact of respect rituals
• Power dynamics, consent, and changing generational values
• How traditions adapt without losing their essence
Whether you grew up practicing this ritual or questioning it, this episode offers a thoughtful perspective on how traditions shape relationships, identity, and emotional bonds.
