International Day Yoga 2023 for Democracy. India is a world leader in democracy and this year theme should be Democracy as we are hosting G-20 summit also. We should have one of major programme of the summit on International Day of Yoga and invite world leaders for Yoga exercise which should be showcased worldwide and benefit the society at large. The embassies in Delhi should also be invited for joining the celebrations of Yoga Day and the programme showcased on the main channels of these countries. It will give a worldwide publicity. It should be followed by day long seminars highlighting benefits of Yoga in todays context.

Sir, Request you to openly claim that yog is part of sanatan dharma...we are up against those cults/civilization that almost completely eliminated the original inhabitants and did cultural appropriation or genocide. They are the ones who even in modern world claimed pate t fpr basmati and haldi.. Therefore, do not give them any opportunity to fill this gap and claim tog was originated in their fantasy books/lands... They have already started doing anything and everything in name of yoga.. Kindly be clear that yog is about mental and physical health and it increases the potential to do sadhna and sustain kundlini awakening...and anything else , all other versions that west and others are doing is unproven, risky, unhealthy and many times absurd.

DEAR ALL The Yoga always thought to be subject of highly intellectual minds but in fact THE YOGA is for humans and may be Hata Yoga with special powers achievement idea developed by ambitious GURU but the simple and natural practice of YOGA helps to maintain good health for longer ages. I once thrown one sweeping item of house cleaning on a cat which regularly coming to my house for milk theft and the correct hit made the CAT unconscious- I too feared by the Murder of CAT which my mom never accepts. So I shifted the CAT 'S BODY to a nearby bushy boarders of my house in ELAMANCHILI AP VIZAG DISTRICT NOW ANAKAPALLI DISTRICT. After midnight around 2AM went to the same spot to confirm death and to my surprise the cat breathing with top speed and in still sleeping condition I got relief as Murder not happened-the cat left the spot by morning. I still think heavy breathing restored CAT health to normal stage. May be when no medicine our deep breathing helps. Let 9th IYD be breathing spl*
