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.

People can watch the Yogathon through television, in schools, societies, their houses and will perform yoga. If your good self appears and shows people that you are doing yoga, it will boost the morale of the country. The telethon or Yogathon on 21st June will awaken the sleeping soul of our country. This is the knowledge of our ancestors, let the world benefit from it. Please prepare a curriculum of yoga and present it to the United Nations on behalf of India,

Dear Modi Ji, I would like to suggest that one national program through television can be organized to celebrate the first International Day of Yoga. The program can be like a telethon, you can name it Yogathon to telecast various yogic postures by the experts, and all the people from the various religions who have benefitted physically and mentally from yoga. Yoga is like a medicine which has no religion. Yoga makes a person physically fit and healthy. Healthy Indians make a strong India.

प्रिय पंतप्रधानजी, आपने "जागतिक योग दिवस" के लिये एक वैश्विक और ऐतिहासिक पहल कि है । इसके लिये आपको बहोत बहोत धन्यवाद । और हम 'भारत के युवा' भी उस पहल को, 'योग में ही आविष्कार' करके एक कदम आगे बढाने कि एक छोटीसी कोशिश कर रहें हैं । हमनें ३ से १४ वर्ष के बच्चों के लिये "जॉयेस्ट योगा फॉर किड्स" इस नये योग प्रकार का आविष्कार किया है । जिससे हम आनेवाली पिढी के बाल्य अवस्था में ही "योग" का महानतम बीज सकारात्मकता से बो सकते हैं । ‍- facebook.com/meditativeyoga

1. At the UN, a Yoga demonstration, from various parts of the world as a showcase with a session for UN members with simple "getting started" concepts 2. In India, every YOGA teacher must train a few people in yoga basics on Yoga day 3. At the World Stage, the masters and practitioners of Yoga, from the East and West must create a Yoga "Fest" (like a Rock Concert), involving meditation music, group yoga shows and lectures and discussions

मोदी जी आपने योग को अंतरास्ट्रीय स्तर पर मनवा कर भारतीय संस्कृति को स्वामी विवेकानंद के बाद पुनर्जीवित किया ह|परतु योग से सूर्य नमस्कार को हटाकर मुस्लिम तुष्टिकरण किया ह जिसकी उम्मीद आपसे नही थी क्योकि जब आपने मुस्लिम टोपी नही पहनी तो हमे ख़ुशी हुई परन्तु अब आपने ये गलत किया ह चुनाव के दौरान आप कहते थे म अपने धर्म को मानता हु और सभी धर्मो का समान करता हु परतु अब योग के धर्म को भी तो निभाना चाहिए और आप तुस्टिकरण के रास्ते पर न चले क्योकि हमारी अंतिम उम्मीद आप ही हो आपका शुभचिंतक संघ का स्वयंसेवक
