In December 2014 the United Nations declared 21st June as ‘International Day of Yoga’ after 177 nations across all continents of the world co-sponsored a resolution seeking the same.

When the resolution was adopted, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed immense joy on this and said that Yoga has the power to bring the entire humankind together. It may be recalled that the Prime Minister had mooted such an idea during his speech at the United Nations General Assembly in September 2014.

You are requested to provide inputs on the following aspects relating to the marking of the first ever ‘International Day of Yoga’.

(1) How can the ‘International Day of Yoga’ be celebrated at the UN forum?

(2) Suggest creative ways in which the ‘International Day of Yoga’ can be celebrated at the world stage.

(3) What are ways in which we can mark the ‘International Day of Yoga’ across the length and breadth of India?

Best inputs and suggestions would be sent to the Prime Minister himself and would also be utilized.

In this present scenario yoga is very important as it keeps us away from all health problems, improves our concentration and moreover it helps us to be fresh and energetic but do we practice yoga "NO".School students must do yoga daily and especially class 10 and 12 students because they do not get into any physical activity because their priority from health and fitness shifts towards their marks.

Yoga is nothing but 'DISCIPLINE', which is common to all, the entire mankind, the birthplace of it being India though. The benefits attained by the practitioner is immense and varies according to the individuals' 'mind' and wish as well. Practice of yoga creates POSITIVE RHYTHM and the same is rather contagious and spreads through even oceans, resulting in universal peace and Himalayan Harmony. The end result being a War-free World

g). Its influence in developing ‘tolerance’ can be explained. The practice of tolerating the disturbances and continuing with meditation can help to make oneself to develop that quality. h). At the same time, it can be explained how much committed one would become, to implement the required things (that become useful to individual's success in career and social life). -> It can be due to the practice followed in meditation to make the mind to follow the useful things only, in positive manner.
