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.

The small pocket type books of 10 pages, which show the pictures of simple yog-ashan should be printed and distributed to the people.It will be much helpful to people who is doing yoga, futher, it will be also usful to encourage the people to practice the yoga in comfort period. For distribution and publicity at grass root level, help of some voluntary institution like RSS,PATANJALI & other interested NGO should be taken for grand success.

हम सभी को इस योग दिवस को सफल बनाने मे आपना योगदान देना चाहिए. मेरा मानना है की सूर्या नमस्कार एक योग की किर्या है इसे धर्म से नही जॉरणा चाहिए. हम हिंदू इस किर्या को सूर्या नमस्कार के रूप मे करे तो मुस्लिम भई लोग इसे अल्लाह की इबादत के रूप मे करे. अगर योग की किर्या करनेसे हमारे तन, मन, अंग के साथ साथ हमारे इस्वर की भी प्राथना हो तो हर्ज़ ही क्या है.

It is noteworthy that many of our charity organisations engaged in the prayer of a particular name of God have started branding Yoga as 'XYZ God name'YOGA. They have international reach. There may be great confusion about forms and means of YOGA. Pls advise all the institutions to perform only AASAN and PRANAYAM and use bare name YOGA without any prefix.
