Dear Members,
In this context, I invite the attention of members to the 
observations of (late) Shri Kanchi Swami regarding Namaskarams in 
general at:   
http://kirtimukha.com/surfings/Cogitation/namo_namah.htm 
A relevant extract: 

... the Acharya has referred to the great causal principle of the 
Jagat by the name NARAYANA. So, when he intends that the namaskaras 
performed to us must be conveyed to the Jagat-Karana-Vastu, he 
instructs: "Convey to Narayana". And to carry out the instruction, he 
has made a rule, which appears easy on the face of it. 

Only that Narayana, who has created all this and has endowed all this 
with vital energy (sakthi), has the "right" to accept all the 
namaskaras. Namaskara to any deity goes to Kesava. We recite the 
sloka: 'Sarva Deva Namaskara Kesavam Pratigachhati'. When namaskaras 
performed to the deities go only to HIM, how can namaskaras performed 
to ordinary people belong to them? All these namaskaras also go to 
HIM only. It is (this principle) that we have been asked to always 
remember when namakaras are performed to us. In order that we do 
not "misappropriate" the namaskaras rightfully belonging to HIM only 
and make sure that the namaskara is duly redirected to HIM, the 
Acharya has most kindly defined a rule for us ? a rule, which as I 
said earlier, is seemingly easy. The rule is that when someone 
performs a namaskara to us, we should say "Narayana, Narayana".

American system where I am.  The priests should know this simple 
rule, but they either do not tell the devotees not to prostrate to 
them in the house of the Lord, or they do not know this simple common-
sense rule.

inside the temple, especially when the Lord is in Asanam in the 
manTapam.  This is another rule that is commonly violated in the 
North American temples, where the generous donors are given applause 
for their donation, or a dance or music performer is applauded for 
offering his/her skills in front of the Lord, or the trustees are 
given an applause for being trustees.
