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.

YOGA for All,should be the motto this year 2015. This can be acheived by implementing YOGA as one subject in SCHOOLS & COLLEGES.YOGA classes to be taught in all offices and Industries.Daily/weekly classes can be implemented.

World is getting the craze for yoga. Taking this as an opportunity we can make India the sole name when it comes to yoga. Thereby we should preach this to the world by any means. This year we can obviously issue stamps though its not that much in use. It can be a limited edition as collectibles or many other collectible items is not a bad option. And we can create a video emblem sort of thing for yoga also.

FOR 'MANN KI BAAT' India’s guest Hon’ble US President Barack Obama is well aware of the fact that his administration can eradicate the Islamic terrorism from all across the world very easily, on war footing. This is the dire need of hour for the global peace, which is a ‘MUST’ today for business among all the countries of course, including between India and the US. How is any trade possible, when there are frequent terror attacks, resulting into killing of hundreds of innocent future consumers?

Globe. Sir, according to my opinion the best slogan for the International Yoga day will be “DO YOGA & BE YOGA CONCIOUS” for peace and happiness- the ultimate desire of a man.

and all are interrelated. To be a perfect man or success in life everybody should be attached (yog) with Bhakti(respect) & Gyan (knowledge) to do right (karmayog) apart from spiritual understanding.

People should also be known the treasures of Yoga apart from commonly known yoga means ‘yog bayam’ or exercise but you know yoga has vast field.
