muni

Honoring the spiritually accomplished (munis) and valuing their darśana as a form of grace; this reflects dharmic hospitality and reverence toward wisdom.

A host figure expresses gratitude and considers themselves supremely fortunate because a revered sage has arrived in their land and granted an audience.

Humility and gratitude—recognizing spiritual presence as a blessing rather than treating it as a mere social visit.
