  4. Do’s • If you are male introduced to a lady or a grown-up girl, don't take the initiative of offering a handshake. If she extends her hand, you must reciprocate, but don't be the first to extend your hand. If you are female and are being introduced to a male: it is up to you – the female – to take the initiative for a handshake. The rule of thumb is: the female extends her hand first, and the male reciprocates.

  5. Don't point your feet at people. Feet are considered to be unclean and therefore it's important to avoid pointing your feet at people, or touching people or objects (particularly books) with your feet or shoes. If you accidentally do so, you should apologize straight away. Also, note that Indians will often touch their head or eyes as a show of apology. On the other hand, it's a sign of respect to bend down and touch an elder person's feet in India.

  6. If you need a spoon, you will need to ask for it or bring one along. Typically, people eat with their (right) hand.

  10. Be careful of excessively friendly strangers, especially in cities and tourist areas. • People are very resentful of Western (ignorant) judgments, and you will only do harm to the Gospel witness. If anyone asks you your beliefs, you certainly can and should share them in a positive manner.

  11. Feel free to ask a lot of questions. People are happy to tell you about the society and their religion.

  12. Don’ts • People usually don’t converse while eating. • If you come unannounced to someone’s home, people don’t like to be disturbed while they are eating.
