Yoga was an ancient physical, mental and spiritual practice that originated in India.
The word ‘Yoga’ derives from Sanskrit and means to join or to unite, symbolizing
the union of body and consciousness.
The international Yoga Day was celebrated on 21st June to bring peace, harmony,
happiness and success to every soul in the world. This was a great opportunity to
imbibe the value of discipline. International Yoga Day is celebrated to spread
awareness about the importance and health benefits of Yoga. It is being said that
Yoga helps balance the body and mind.
Recognizing its universal appeal, on 11 December 2014, the United Nations
proclaimed 21st June as the International Day of Yoga by resolution 69/131. The
proposal was first introduced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his address
during the opening of the 69th session of the General Assembly, in which he said
“Yoga was an invaluable gift from our ancient tradition. Yoga embodies unity of
mind and body, thought and action…..a holistic approach is valuable to our health
and well-being. Yoga is not just about exercise; it is a way to discover the sense
of oneness with yourself, the world and the nature.”
International Yoga Day was celebrated through an online platform Facebook. The
programme was organized and executed by the Cultural and Discipline Committee.
