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.

Mr.PM, we can make world connect deeply with International Yoga Day mission is by embarking on it in association with Los Angeles based SRF-YSS (Self-Realization Fellowship - Yogoda Satsang Society) of Paramahansa Yogananda who dedicated his life in teaching Kriya Yoga & Spirituality in America; he has millions of disciples all over the world. As he is one of the 2 most revered Indians ever along with Mahatma Gandhi, linking IYD with his legacy will be the best start to your Divine Mission !!!

Our country can earn much more by selling medicines made from Bharatiya desi cow products than we are earning by selling its beef. Thus even from financial point of view, we find that by banning slaughter of Bharatiya desi cows, our country will gain strength. Bharatiya desi Cows have been the center of health, economy and culture of our country. Hence no other day can be better than International Yoga day to announce total ban on slaughter of Bharatiya cow breeds.

Bharatiya cow breeds are an indifferentiable part of yog because of their medicinal value in ayurved. Bharatiya cow urine has got US patent for its capacity to treat cancer. Bharatiya cow milk has a gene/protien called A2 beta-casein that is known not only safe but best milk for humans. Ayurved when paired with Bharatiya desi cow breeds has so many possibilities for attaining healthy future generations. We must respect such a possession and must put total ban on slaughter of Bharatiya desi cows.

Our presentation at International Yoga Day could project India's rich heritage & how the country could partner with other countries to bring this concept to their doorstep or how these countries can partner with us to facilitate their coming to India to derive this unique art. Our Country has rich heritage & there are many walking encyclopedia's who could contribute & make this concept a universal phenomenon for the benefit of humanity at large.PM deserve praise for focusing on this concept.
