Respected asthikas
 We should thank sadagopan swami for the informative article recently. I may be 
pardoned for adding a few points.
A sanyasin howevever young can be prostrated without abivadanam even if he is 
your acharyan. A sanyasin  does not prostrate others except his mother.The 
poorvaasrama father of the sanyasi can prostrate the sanyasin.

Abivadanam is not done to one  person in a sabai.
I had observed several years back that when two senior vaishnavites met they 
prostrated each other several times and stopped only when one of them was tired 
or exhausted.The number of prostrations did not count,when one prostrates 
before his acharyan, he should continue till the  acharyan calls for a stop. 
The number 1,2 ,4 etc are not significant.

Prostration to an individual is not done in the temple prakaram.

In a shastanganamaskarams, I have observed some srossing their legs in the 
supime position but do not know the reason.
Women do not perform shastanga namaskaram. 
Dasan
