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 should be included in school curriculum from the next academic year. A separate period every week should be allotted to yoga class. This will also open employment opportunities for yoga teachers.

On 21st June 2015, First World Yoga Day, a heartiest thanks to Hon’ Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi for taking YOG to international stage as a gift by India to humanity. This calendar depicts Yogasans holding pride of India - Ashok Chakra which signifies the message that YOG will never let INDIA fall down. Jai Hind. Vande Mataram. I Tried a lot to attach the PDF of just 3MB but was unable to. So please find the download link for the same. https://www.sendspace.com/file/iyg1m8

As a student in school, we never had the chance to learn the yoga and its benefits . During our PE (Physical Exercise) classes we used to perform other exercises which were inherited I don't know from when and where. Hence request you to please ask the HRD ministry to make it mandatory for introducing the Yoga at school level. Thus at a very young age we are though of the very benefits of it on our health and thus the aim of a Healthy Nation Prospering.

A suggestion on making yoga more acceptable in today's world- modern world's objective behind exercising is highly influenced by objective to lose weight and not holistic health. Hence the question, how many calories I will lose by doing this exercise is very important. I tried to find calorie burning calculation for exercises as Kapalbhati & Anulom vilom and I could find any good source online. Please market yoga with number of calories an aasan helps you lose e.g 5 min kapalbhati=100 cal
