International Day of Yoga is also called as the World Yoga Day. The idea of International Day of Yoga was first proposed by the Honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi, during his speech at the UNGA, on 27 September 2014.

We must formulate a sequence consisting of poses that provide exercise, recreation and healing. For an example, we can encourage people to start their practice with Surya Namaskar and follow them with Forward Bends and Simple Twists and then incorporate closing poses like the Basic Back Bends and simple Pranayama, ending the session with Savasana ( relaxation pose).

My name is Sandeep Desai, a teacher of two highly evolved arts, Tai Chi and Ashtanga Yoga. I regularly write articles on these arts in the popular Speaking Tree column of the Times of India.

Jai jinendra, meeting with all religions to inspire nation to go for meditation for 5 minutes everyday to connect to self. This will make every person more wise, learned, virtuous & knowledgeable. This method is hopefully there in every religion and practicing it won't hurt any religion in any manner. Punishment in schools should be on the basis of shastra instead of violent punishments, which will make children wise. Connecting to self will let them win over themselves & be on right path.

My idea for Celebrating International Day of Yoga - 2017 is to organize a mega event in a lush green huge Park and then setting a founding stone for it as a YOGA PARK with facilities and amenities of International Standards. So, that it could be projected as must see tourist destination for the National/International visitors. Also, Park can be decorated in due course with Sculptures or tree being cut in different Yoga Postures followed by unique YOGA Museum then we can value YOGA in true sense.
