Namaste Bookshop, located at 2 W. 14th Street (between 5th and 6th Avenue), opened its doors on November 21, 2010. One meaning of Namaste is, “I give reverence to the spirit in you which is also in me” and it is in this spirit that the community is invited in. One of the first comments often heard from a customer is ”Wow, the energy feels so wonderful and inviting here.” The space is small yet the shelves and space are filled beautifully.We have a unique and large selection of Eastern & Western philosophy books, tarot cards, crystals, pendulums, calendars, wind chimes, incense, greeting cards, yoga accessories, meditation cushions, instructional & music CD’S & DVD’s, salt lamps, and 20 sections of books- including Spanish. The book sections include Buddhism, Western Philosophy, Eastern Philosophy, Yoga/Ayurveda, Mantra/Tantra, Meditation, Divination/Wicca, Bodywork/Reiki, and many more. Our music selection is vast and unique; besides favorites like Krishna Das, Snatum Kaur, Deva Premal and Jai Uttal, often there are featured artists from the eastern and world music scene whose CD’s are not available anywhere else in the city except for Namaste Bookshop.
