Yoga: A Celebration of Oneness with Life

As you may be aware this Sunday, June 21st is the International Day of Yoga as declared by the United Nations on December 11, 2014.

The declaration of this day came after the call by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi during his address to UN General Assembly on September 27, 2014 wherein he stated:

“Yoga is an invaluable gift of India’s ancient tradition. It embodies unity of mind and body; thought and action; restraint and fulfilment; harmony between man and nature; a holistic approach to health and well-being.

Let us work towards adopting an International Yoga Day.”
