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.

ji, Namaste! I am S.Sekhar. I did M.A(Yoga for Human Excellence) in Madras University and M.A(Philosophy) in Madurai Kamaraj University and Ph.D(Yoga Philosophy) in Madras University. My Ph.D Thesis is a Comparative study of Patanjali Yoga and Vethathiri Yoga. Yoga is not only Asanas. Yoga is giving harmony between Body & Mind, Body & Soul, Self & Others, Self & Nature of God. So, We celebrate in this Function doing Yogasanas, Meditation and Lectures about Yogic Life.

We must take note of the fact that as a reality-check we have to take it that YOGA has definitely not been in the breath of the people for decades now, which takes us to the fact that, at least, two-three generations of the populace of this great country have not come to look upon YOGA to be in their life as a routine matter. THAT WAY, WE HAVE TO COME TO TERMS WITH THE FACT THAT YOGA NEEDS TO BE 'INTRODUCED' TO THE PEOPLE AT LARGE, ESPECIALLY THE YOUTH. THIS FACT CAN'T BE IGNORED.
