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.

I t is excellent to know that on the initiative of our Prime Minister Modiji the UNO has declared 21st as the International Yoga Day. However I think that Yoga is not just one day affai, it has to be practiced everyday. It has to be part of life. Yoga does not mean only physical postures. It is combination of Asanas, Pranayam and Meditation. Yoga means addition two added to two makes four likewiseadditing asanas, pranayam and meditation to our life makes perfect combination of our mind and body

Every Indian from children to old age may celebrate or participate in the ‘International day of Yoga’ i.e.,21st June by sitting in any Yogic posture according to their capacity for at least 5 minutes in their home or work place and encourage other family members/neighbors to do the same as well as taking the photo of Yogic posture and post it to the social media to show the friends to do the same, may be a good way to celebrate(remember) this Indian traditional culture for peace & harmony.
