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.

So as Surya Namaskar is also part of Yoga practise , the Inter national Yoga Day i.e 21 june may be considered as Surya Namaskara Day. Here remember able point is June 21st is Summer Solistice i.e Longest day of the year. Solistice gets its name from the latin for Sol(sun)and sistere(to stand still0. So "world Yoga day" is nothing but "Surya Namaskar Day". For more details see http://ssmasramam.blogspot.in/2015/04/surya-namaskar-best-spiritual-yoga.html

Dear Sir, The Yoga finally gets its recognition. We need to involve Naturopathy and Ayurveda to associate with it to make it complete. It is a life style to get rid of most of the diseases and reduce the usage of medicines. Thanks for all who made this a success and wish Yoga Day all success. K. Babu

Modiji first get the patent rights for yoga by stating that it belongs to bharat desh in the international patents, it would be very grateful if you do that because some people are trying adopt our methods and trying to tell it does not belong to India, it is my humble request to do that first..
