Hindu Rituals - To touch another with the feet is considered an act of misdemeanor. Why is this so? (Part 20 of 23)

Man is regarded as the most beautiful, living breathing temple of the Lord! Therefore touching another with the feet is akin to disrespecting the divinity within him or her. This calls for an immediate apology, which is offered with reverence and humility.

Thank you, Readers
