I thank him
This is probably similar to the practice of making your sifu alive, so you are in his presence. It can be a wonderful reminder at times.

So I know that some lineages open and close with ritual gestures.
The Dong family has a salute, as does Doc's Shen Men Tao system.I guess as a calling card to represent the school, but possibly also as an honorific to the tradition?
Do any of you have such a salute, what does it mean?
